clark THENHAUS / Endemic: Carr Castle and Ornamental Gardens was a proposal for the Pruitt Igoe Now Competition integrating an architectural solid, (Chapel), with an informal, ornamental berm garden. Given the multi-layered contextual complexity of both physical and virtual histories in North St. Louis, this proposal concentrated on the physical qualities of a topographic garden and carved solid as cultural and social mediums, rather then directly economic or political strategies. Landform and mass thus serve as both a strategy of erasure, yet simultaneously as a material residue of remembrance through object and field.
