The key idea of the Life Science Centre architecture are
the science and teaching complex modules forming the
public space layout and comprising the integral whole
like different cells of the matter. Cube-shaped volumes
in open spaces of Saulėtekis, reiterating the natural
context and building a humanist, traditional urban
structure characteristic of the city of Vilnius, resemble
a feature of the historical Vilnius University ensemble –
a cosy inner courtyard. The monumental expression of
the building architecture provides exceptionality and
reflects the typological purpose.
