In an increasingly digital world, full-scale mock-ups and analog models are a critical part of the Unknown Studio process, reconnecting hand and eye, scale, proportion, phenomena, and materiality in actual space. In addition to our digital processes, our team believes in the critical importance of developing projects in three dimensions.

The American Garden (noun) as an artform is a long conversation between ecosystem, colonialism, migration, and the cross-pollination of ideas. American Gardening (verb) reflects a reciprocal relationship with the natural world: we need nature, but more importantly, nature needs us.

Unknown Studio was thrilled to explore these themes through our installatino The Ghost Forest at the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society’s 2026 Philadelphia Flower Show. This year’s theme, Rooted: Origins of American Gardening, coincides with the nation’s 250th birthday.

A void represents where the American Chestnut once grew. A keystone within the eastern woodland, the Chestnut was at once interconnected with and sustaining of human life. Our exhibition invites the public to contemplate loss, while illuminating the beauty of a future woodland through partnership with the gardener.

Unknown Studio actively engaged in work on-the-ground. Our collective gathering of acorns, chestnuts, locust pods, hickory nuts, and magnolia cones over the course of months yielded time to contemplate the questions guiding this installation:

How do we fill the vast ecological niche of the American Chestnut while staying true to the native plant community of the eastern seaboard?

How do we preserve the cultural meaning of the Chestnut without losing hope of its return? Is this a productive form of nostalgia?

Is something better than nothing?

Does a simple act of small-scale gardening make up for ecological and cultural loss?

Passive ecological regeneration is impossible; restoring the woodland and tending the forest floor will take stewardship in the smallest and broadest sense. The chestnut seedlings within our Garden are entirely American Chestnuts from two mother trees in Cumberland County, PA. That they live at all is the result of the persistence of people and the protection of their roots.

Gratitude to for the opportunity, to for seedlings, to for advice, to for extra hands, to for prunings, to for the tools, and to our families & neighbors for the nuts

Unknown Studio is pleased to welcome new additions to the team!

Nangorlee Demenwu joins Unknown Studio as our new Director of Communications. She brings a wealth of experience including international relations and humanities nonprofits, along with her past role on the business development team at KieranTimberlake. Nangorlee is inspired by design’s potential to enrich the world through stitching individual stories into broader narratives. Extracurricularly, Nangorlee’s joy revolves around her curious mind—traveling often, wandering museums, cooking new recipes, discovering new music, and exploring local coffee shops.

Agnes To is a landscape designer who is interested in the intersection of art, ecology, and community within the urban fabric. A native of the vibrant urban density of Hong Kong, she is inspired to craft spaces that merge human experience with landscape infrastructure. Outside the studio, Agnes loves cooking, enjoying the outdoors, and exploring neighborhoods and cities around the world.

Please join us in welcoming Nangorlee and Agnes to Charm City!

Unknown Studio is thrilled to be a special exhibitor at this year’s Philadelphia Flower Show.

The 2026 Flower Show theme—Rooted: Origins of American Gardening—shows that gardens aren’t just made; they’re passed forward through generations, carried across land, oceans, and lifetimes.

In our installation, Unknown Studio explores the American Garden as an artform (noun) that embodies a long cultural conversation between ecosystem, colonialism, migration, and the cross-pollination of ideas. We will also look to how American Gardening (verb) reflects a reciprocal relationship with the natural world: we need nature, but more importantly, nature needs us.

Here’s a sneak peek at some of the adventures we’ve been on, and the various elements exploring ecological loss and the woodland role of the beloved American Chestnut, Castanea dentata.

Unknown Studio is excited to share a special preview of our Philadelphia Flower Show (February 28-March 8) exhibition design with PHS Members at 12PM EST TODAY – you can register here: http://bit.ly/4qNLc81

We are thrilled to begin work on a new plan for the Tohono Chul Park, a remarkable 49-acre botanical garden in the Sonoran Desert of Tucson, Arizona. Sometimes called “The Green Desert” because of its unique status as one of the most biodiverse deserts int he world, The Sonoran Desert features abundant, diverse vegetation including the iconic saguaro cactus.

Our team looks forward to partnering with Bowman Engineering and architects PMM in order to envision the guest experience, community ties, and conservation at Tohono Chul. The new master planning effort will build on the Garden’s 40-year legacy of conservation, culture, and community.

To help guide the next ten to fifteen years of the organization’s development, this master plan will embrace the unique ecological and cultural qualities of the Sonoran Desert, honoring the past while imagining a vibrant future for the Garden.
