"A Changing Community of Knowledge"

Voluntary mutual contribution of knowledge through routine and extraordinary exchanges

1. Campus Node_Considering the center of KIST

Considering the location of the research building in the center of the campus, an open space is planned in the front, and it is connected and fused with the existing campus space to create a new central space that prepares for the future of KIST.

2. Accidental Encounter_Creativity is Expressed

Based on the concept of 'Eureka Moment,' a new stimulus through extraordinary experiences, we analyze the behavior of individuals, teams, and groups, and plan a three-dimensional space for immersion and relaxation.

3. Future Lab_Responding to change

We provide an optimal research environment by reflecting the needs of researchers through post-residency evaluation, and realize a flexible research and experimental space that can respond to changes in the future research environment by focusing the facility space outward.
