Ice Garden
Omaha, Nebraska, 2010
Commissioned by the Omaha World Herald (Omaha's daily newspaper), the Ice Garden is a design proposal for a temporary public space made from ice located on Gene Leahy Mall in downtown Omaha. The series of 2 open courtyards and 8 closed "domes" are conceived as social gathering spaces as well as the site for a pop-up restaurant featuring winter foods prepared and served outside by local chefs. The project combines the tradition of ice harvesting with contemporary digital fabrication procedures.
