From the outside, this lab doesn't seem any different than a standard issue lab. There's no paint on the door, and only a simple placard to denote its owner. Inside, however, the space resembles a garden more than a lab. The room is very brightly lit, and plants, most of them from arid regions, huddle in square pots on every surface. A layer of pebbly dirt covers the floor, and in one corner sits a stack of empty pots and half-used bags of soil. A well-loved rolling chair sits in front of the computer with a blanket draped over the back near the observation glass of the housing units.
