  J{\'e}r{\^o}me Lalande, a famous French astronomer in the 18th century,
collaborated throughout his career with several female calculators in
astronomy: Nicole Reine Lepaute, Marie Louise Dupi{\'e}ry and Marie Jeanne
Lefran{\c c}ois. Taking on highly technical tasks of calculation and sometimes
observation, they also took on the scientific ''intendance'' for the
astronomer. This management of a part of the scholarly enterprise was mainly
carried out from home, as were the astronomical calculations. This space was
therefore both a family living space and a space for the production of
knowledge. This article will focus on its material organization as well as on
the dynamics that took place between the different places of knowledge involved
here.
