RUIN GARDEN
Joint project with Anselm Reyle, plant planning with Harald Jeremias. Transformation of the dilapidated main building of a former dockyard into a ruin garden, which takes up and enhances the romantic atmosphere of the disused industrial site. The ruin form was developed based on models and transferred to the building 1:1 before defining the fragments. The geometric shape of the lawn is reminiscent of paths that have been cut through a thicket of plants. The strictly precise contours of the lawn form the counterpart to the seemingly wild planting, which is characterized by perennials, grasses and trees such as birch and staghorn sumac.
