Rooftop gardens create usable green environments above the ground plane and bring landscape value into dense urban settings.
Green Spaces Above the City
A rooftop garden can extend the living quality of a building while introducing planting, shade, and outdoor comfort. It may:
- provide seating and relaxation areas
- add visual value to the structure
- create a more natural atmosphere in the city
Technical Planning and Infrastructure
These projects require careful coordination between landscape intent and building performance. Typical planning includes:
- waterproofing and drainage solutions
- lightweight substrate and surface systems
- irrigation infrastructure
- planting strategy and placement
Plant Selection and Compatibility
Plant palettes are chosen to match wind exposure, sunlight conditions, weight limits, and maintenance needs.
Site-Specific Design
Every rooftop garden is shaped according to the building, structural constraints, and the way the outdoor space is meant to be used.
