Design collaboration with Robert Ferré

A
paved labyrinth modeled after New Harmony's (Indiana) Cathedral Labyrinth
has been constructed in front of the University of Southern Indiana's Liberal
Arts Center as part of its quadrangle project. The quadrangle provides
a new focal point for the campus and will include areas of landscaping
and seating.
"The concept of the labyrinth was that they wanted a living reference
on campus to their relationship with New Harmony," said Mark Rozewski,
USI vice president for Business Affairs. The Cathedral Labyrinth, located
on North Street in New Harmony, is a replica of the labyrinth at Chartres
Cathedral, built in the 12th century near Paris, France. The consultant
on the USI project, Labyrinth Enterprises, LLC of St. Louis, also worked
on the Cathedral Labyrinth, which it describes as "the most beautiful
labyrinth in the United States."
