TLC Series - Secret Gardens in the City: A Case Study of Norweta Condominiums
1h 3m
The Norweta community of condominium and apartment residences is focused on the connections between outdoor green space and family-friendly design being central to contemporary urban living. Intersections between plants and people are artfully woven through the built space with three elevated courtyards, a pool, and a rooftop garden. In a conversation with site design group’s Hana Ishikawa, AIA, ASLA, Design Principal and Mark Jirik, PLA, ASLA, LEED AP, ISA Certified Arborist, Director of Horticulture, plus Kevin Crist, Director of Construction for Intrinsic Landscaping, Inc., we’ll explore the thoughtful plant and material choices that have created a green oasis, while also touching back to the aesthetics of our unique Midwestern landscapes. Discover how this dynamic project was developed and installed including its singular challenges.
