   ...ay from environments of diurnal activity and nocturnal loneliness" to one–acre lots in "God's own country." This leads to urban sprawl or "terra descratum." More types of people should be involved in the concept and planning stages. Includes biographical paragraphs. Clarke, Lewis. 1963. A merchandising aid: Landscape architecture—how it creates an enjoyable shopping atmosphere. Technical Bulletin (Producers Council) 104 (June): 38—41. Main Street has been replaced by enclosed malls where ten percent of space is allocated for public use. This is the "mall," which produces no income but enhances environment where income is produced. Ten percent is what must be designed by landscape architect, mindful that "the mall" sets the shopper at ease, makes the trip an adventure, and is intended to be a weekly experience. Interior amenities are known. Exterior entrances need attention, because shopping centers are usually big boxes with parking lots. "The design should be aligned with stage design to dramatize and symbolize an integration of indoor and outdoors, and not merely to copy the outdoors inside. Thus a new environment without real historical precedent is created." Conclusion: Evident that changing role of shopping center has potential "quite unrealized in today's society." Large–span roof structures and "utilization of good environmental landscape design, integrated with new technological progress can, if guided with sound financial pioneering leadership, make a tremendous contribution to sociological advancement, and enrich the lives of many people." Seven black–and–white photos selected from Northway Mall, Pittsburgh, Pa.; North Star Mall, San Antonio, Tex.; The Mall, Louisville, Ky.; Charlottetown Mall, Charlotte, N.C.; Cherry Hill Shopping Center, Cherry Hill, N.J. Back to Top Clarke, Lewis. [1963] 1964. Theatre and the new main street. In Theatre and Main Street, ed. Donald M. Gooch, 102—7. Ann Arbor, Michigan: University of Michigan, College of Architecture and Design. Remarks of 26 participants delivered at "Theatre and Main Street," a conference which took place in Ann Arbor, Michigan, March 21 and 22, 1963. Broad in scope, the conference sought theatre's place socially, environmentally, and economically. Clarke's remarks addressed to a subpanel titled, "Theatre as Environment." Asks the question, why has the theatre become divorced from the people? Casts everyday street scenes as backdrops for dramas, but posits that as the Haymarket style of dramas has disappeared so has Main Street. Where have both gone? Enclosed shopping centers are suggested in what may be one of the first written remarks to say so. Includes six of the better black–and–white photos of Cherry Hill Mall interior. Clarke, Lewis. 1967. Green fingers of Raleigh: Oasis in a city. Raleigh Times. January 7. Streams and gullies encircle 1,800 acres of land. Full–page article written while Clarke was professor at NCSU. Describes how the creeks and streams in Raleigh are like green fingers extended from a "wrist" located under the bridge on Highway 1 North at the old Farmer's Market. Praises some developers for building in consideration of what we now call greenways, and laments the disappearance or pollution of others. A call for a green–finger plan that would interconnect all the spaces, fund the Parks Department, and provide inducements to developers who preserve the streams and their surrounding [ecosystems]. "Then perhaps future generations can say that Raleigh citizens of the Sixties thought wisely and acted intelligently to preserve the beauty and productivity of these Capital City Green Fingers so necessary to proper flood control and to man's use of the land." Includes drawing of all the streams overlaid on map of major Raleigh streets. Three black–and–white photos of existing streams. This plan pre–dates Bill Flournoy's greenways plan. Clarke says he gave the idea to Flournoy as a graduate thesis topic. Flournoy is considered the "father" of the greenways of Raleigh. Clarke should be considered the "grandfather." Clarke, Lewis. 1971. The style makers speak: A local style. In Time Life encyclopedia of gardening, ed. James Underwood, 92—93. Alexandria, Virginia: Time Life Books. Editor writes, "Every era creates its style and every style reflects its era. Modern landscape design, mirroring the economics and the mood of its time, rejects ostentation in favor of simplicity, and formality in favor of fitness and function. . . . The American Style these men [Church, Clarke, Guy Green, and Robert Royston] shaped has been influenced by the Japanese in the Northwest and West, by the Spanish in the Southwest: but everywhere it displays a sense of place. In the hands of such style makers of today as Guy Greene, Lewis Clarke, and Robert Royston, who describe their designs on the following pages, the results are as different as the Appalachians and the Arizona desert. Yet each one, true to basic principles established in the gardens of Church, celebrates the natural beauty of the American countryside." Under the heading "Ecological realism," Clarke writes, "The design for Louisiana is not the design for New Hampshire. On the East Coast a concrete patio is not put in front of the living room because it would reflect summer heat; around the San Francisco Bay region the patio would be needed for that very reason. We look for ways in which we can make people more aware of the region in which they live or work. I would like them to say, after we're gone, that nobody was here, that only God did this. I try to harmonize and contrast the varying elements that the five senses perceive so that the result seems to have existed all the time, and to achieve that I use water where appropriate. It is the only garden construction material that possesses movement, sound and great characteristics of lighting reflection and color. So most of our schemes involve an eternal search to emphasize these qualities of water." Color picture and caption: "From a N.C. terrace bordered with dahlias, a brick walk wends through native pines and dogwoods to one of a series of pools that Lewis Clarke calls 'rondos.' He considers water a universal element in diverse landscapes." Additional color picture with caption: "A tiny waterfall punctuates a rock–bordered stream that, on its course toward Clarke's rondos, flows past tall loblolly pines and pampas grass (left), azaleas (center) and liriope (right, background), all indigenous to the Piedmont region. The cypress–sided cabin serves as a woodland retreat for the owner." The owner was J. W. "Willie" York of Raleigh. Back to Top [Clarke, Lewis]. 1973. An auto–oriented plan for a home landscape. Southern Living 8 (7): 104. Residence of Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Dill, Pinehurst, N.C. A design that addressed the problem of how to accommodate guests' automobiles and the new problem of how to incorporate parking space and drive into a residential landscape. Three black–and–white photos show features such as six–foot–wide brick–on–sand walkway and a crape myrtle trimmed in a multi–trunk tree form. The walk, writes Clarke (who is not attributed but did write the article), "has a good beginning and end." Clarke, Lewis. 2005. N.C. State's hard–won open space. In Point of view. News and Observer (Raleigh, NC). March 5. At issue was a proposal to build a replica of Eduardo Catalano's 1950s roof on North Carolina State University's Court of North Carolina, one of the last open spaces on what has become known as the "historic campus." Clarke vehemently opposed disturbing the site, which was "consciously created and preserved by many people during the past 50 years." Clarke calls the roof a "hyperbola," a shape not complementary to the site. The hill on which the structure would be located would "do a grave disservice to such an elegant roof form." The roof was not built because students objected through their channels of complaint and demonstration. Catalano withdrew a rumored $1 million gift to the College of Design. Clarke, Lewis. 2006. A new look. In Letters to the editor. News and Observer (Raleigh, NC). May 28.  A letter to the editor about the design for a new chancellor's residence to be located on Centennial Campus. The style being proposed by Dean Malacha was Palladian. Clarke called for a competition to design a more 21st century residence and grounds. Lewis Clarke Associates. [1968?]. Specifications for School of Design, laboratory garden, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, N.C. Design for garden that has since been replaced by a building. Lewis Clarke Associates. 1969.
