National Labs Map

An amusing reference of the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Laboratories.

An outgrowth of immense investment in scientific research initiated by the U.S. Government during World War II, the National Laboratories have served as the leading institutions for scientific innovation in the United States for more than seventy years.

The Department of Energy’s 17 National Labs tackle the critical scientific challenges of our time—from combating climate change to discovering the origins of our universe—and possess unique instruments and facilities, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. They address large scale, complex research and development challenges with a multidisciplinary approach that places an emphasis on translating basic science to innovation.

Symmetry Magazine asked us to create a map of the National Labs in 2013 and again in 2025. We created illustrations and a design for a both an interactive map and an accompanying poster.
