INSITE
MARK SCHOLLEN, SCHOLLEN & COMPANY
“We have to make sure that we are sensitive to the features, the functions and the habitats. We don’t just draw a line at the buffer and say ‘this is nature and this is urban’. We draw that natural environment into the design of the landscape.”
Mark Shollen
Mansouri Living interviewed Mark Schollen from Schollen & Company for this week’s INSITE and dug into topics ranging from sustainable landscape design, innovations in urban ecology and what excites him about our latest development North on Bayview.
For over two decades the talented team at Schollen & Company Inc. has approached every project with a unique combination of ecological sensitivity and respect for community aspirations. They are bringing a generation of solutions that are innovative, environmentally responsible and practical to our newest community.
At North on Bayview they have envisioned thoughtful designs for both our hardscapes and softscapes, from rooftop terraces on every townhome, to a park feature with multigenerational play spaces, extensive reforestation scheme for the conservation lands to the green infrastructure management system including rainwater harvesting and recycling.
