Highrise Haven

Overview

A private roof deck in the heart of the city necessitated a complete transformation in order for the homeowners to capture over 3,000 SF of private outdoor space.

Two steel and ipe shade structures anchor both ends in order to define separate rooms in such an expansive space. The custom Kalamazoo kitchen creates a sleek and clean finish on one side as the cozy lounge furniture welcomes you to the other.

Synthetic turf delineates the putting green area from the porcelain tile and ipe decking that covers the larger portion of the roof.

Custom railing composed of ipe paneling, frosted glass and stainless steel framing was essential to finishing the space. Fiberglass and custom wood planters were placed throughout to soften the entire deck through the use of a simple landscape palette of hydrangeas, boxwoods and annuals.
