In this project A+M proposed to (re)consider the most mundane aspects of urban/ suburban existence within the larger framework of gardening and landscape design – within the search of lost paradise. Can it be found again in our back yards? Can it be constructed of commonly-available materials? And will it provide a few elevated, spiritual, sublime moments amidst minutia of modern living?
