A graduate in Forestry from the University of Florence and in Landscape Architecture from the Sapienza University of Rome, Stefano Mengoli's fields of interest are urban greenery, green design and environmental restoration. Specialised in urban green management at the Municipal Institute of Parks and Gardens in Barcelona, he has developed the subject by studying global service systems for urban green, analysis methods to implement the quality of green spaces and new experimental green formulas for the city. He has served as a commissioner for the awarding of green contracts for metropolitan cities. His research and design activities have led him to develop various themes, from garden streets (Calenzano. 2009) to the study of green eco-neighbourhoods (Orbetello, 2011), up to and including naturalistic tourist villages with an ecological footprint (Follonica, 2012). His experience as a botanical curator of historical gardens has led him to study the compositIve formula of botanical bioparks as amusement parks (Varese, 2017; Lonato del Garda, 2017) and vertical gardens conceived as natural power (among the latest, Mondo Juve Turin and Aventino Rome, 2018), as well as the recovery of historical trees (Gallerie vegetali Castelgandolfo, 2009; Viale platani SS1 Pisa-San Giuliano Terme) and the creation of an ornamental park starting from a holm oak wood (Storico Giardino Villa Rospigliosi, Lamporecchio 2010). Stefano Mengoli is also the author of numerous publications on urban and architectural greenery and edited, for the publishing house Il Sole 24 ORE Business Media Srl, the book FARE VERDE URBANO, a volume on green urbanism in Italy.
