Mamie Harvey: Designing Science and Technology Spaces

Mamie Harvey, president and co-leader of the Science & Technology Studio at Alliiance, recently spoke with Joel Hoekstra for AIA Minnesota’s ENTER publication to discuss the design of science and technology (S&T) spaces.

In the interview, Mamie recounts what initially drew her to the architecture for S&T; discusses the challenge of balancing rigorous technical requirements with occupant comfort and well-being; reflects on the complexity of integrating S&T spaces into existing and historic buildings; and highlights the reward of collaborating with industry experts to design spaces that truly support the way people work.

From advanced laboratories to reimagined historic buildings, Mamie’s work is a testament to the power of curiosity, collaboration, and design thinking.
