“We really try to push the envelope when it
comes to architecture,” says Rella Fogliano,
President of MacQuesten Development.
“We are very much involved in the whole
development process. If we come across
a material that is exciting and that is also
sustainable, we will try to change the plan.
We work very closely with the architect from
the design of the concept through the actual
design.”
