Summary:

Today there are many architectural "laboratories" in universities comprising an international network of related and varied interpretations of the term, which includes spaces of production, nodes of knowledge exchange, and even pretexts for forms of research that might be unrecognizable to a scientist. Columbia University has hosted two important cases, the Laboratory for Design Correlation set up by Frederick Kiesler in 1937, and the many labs of the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation, under its former dean Mark Wigley, saw an increase from five labs to twenty-seven on research subjects from urban design to death. Today, practices that emerged from such laboratory networks now operate beyond the university though often in lab-like ways.
