This project reimagines Sleepy Hollow Country Club as a fractured landscape of ecological, social, and spatial repair. Once upheld by exploitative labor systems and elite leisure, the site becomes a testing ground for new land uses rooted in care, conflict, and cohabitation. Through soil banks, classroom pavilions, communal kitchens, greenhouse towers, and slow-growing clover meadows, the design unfolds across phases: guided by multiple ecological ideologies, from subnaturalist healing to machine expressionism to performative spectacle. Rather than erasing the site’s past, the proposal exposes it, allowing competing systems, human and more-than-human, to intersect, adapt, and reshape the terrain into a living, unfinished commons.
