On The Roof With Biophilic Community Developer and Visionary Steve Nygren

Interview with Steven W. Peck

Steve and his team have been working to implement biophilic design principles at the community development scale 30 minutes south of Atlanta for almost twenty years and the results are impressive. Serenbe is a development modeled after traditional European villages, and as a result it uses far less land than traditional development projects.The conserved land is then preserved for forests, farming and pasture land. I attended the Biophilic Summit thisSpring at Serenbe to find out from Steve how biophilic design is being realized in this model of a sustainable and healthy community.
