Fall 2011 Hay Maze
Peter E. Brown
Winner of Woodmere's summer 2011 design competition
Woodmere is pleased to announce Peter E. Brown the winner of the 2011 hay
maze competition. Brown, who lives in Fort Washington, is a project designer
and project manager at the architectural firm Lenhardt Rodgers. He has
worked on numerous projects including: The Shipley School in Bryn Mawr, The
Caring Center at 31st and Spring Garden Street, Eastern College in St.
Peter's design was inspired by a long-time interest in architectural ruins
and sacred spaces– Stonehenge in Britain, The Lowery Pueblo ruins in
Colorado, Pueblo Bonita Great Kiva in New Mexico, and the stone circle of
Dingle, Ireland. 900 bales of hay were used in the construction of the maze,
which has two course high outer walls and a four course rotunda. The walls
are two bales thick.
