Space: The Laboratory

P.494, Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms

The laboratory should be far removed from the growing rooms, preferably in a separate building. The air of the laboratory is always kept free of airborne particulates while the growing rooms' air becomes saturated with mushroom spores. The growing rooms are des- tined to contaminate. Even the spores of mushrooms should be viewed as potential contaminants threatening the laboratory. If both the laboratory and growing rooms are housed in the same building, contamination is much more likely. Since the activities within the laboratory and growing rooms are distinctly different, separate buildings are preferred."



Tools & Materials

Almost everything I was needed for materials and tools was in the Textile lab, Lyon. I use the space the more fare of the biolab, completely in opposite side and in my appartment.
