Thanks to all for some excellent suggestions. I am most interested in the Life Sciences. I work for a company that publishes science journals and is considering running a series on science buildings and architecture.
Science Buildings
Does anyone know of interesting Scientific facilities? On-campus science buildings, labs, etc.?
Check out the Masdar Institute of Science and Technology, under development in Masdar City, UAE.
Wow, that's great. Thank you.

"science facilities" is a rather large pool to pull from. is there a specific area of science you are interested?
Kahn - Salk Institute and Richards medical facilities.
