Unused roofs become usable garden floors — engineered for load and waterproofing first, then designed for the view.
A terrace garden is equal parts engineering and horticulture. Before it can look effortless, it has to be waterproofed, drained, and planted in media light enough for the structure to carry. Get that order wrong and the most beautiful rooftop becomes a leak.
We design and build terrace gardens for hotels and residences where a roof is too valuable to leave bare — a dining terrace, a spa deck, a green outlook from the rooms above.
Planting and build kept within the roof's structural capacity, coordinated with your engineer.
Layered waterproofing and drainage detailing so the terrace stays dry beneath the garden.
Engineered soil profiles that hold water and nutrition at a fraction of the weight.
Species chosen to take exposure, glare and reflected heat at height.
Concealed drip and moisture control suited to container and raised-bed planting.
Paving, edges and lighting resolved so the terrace is a room, not just a roof.
Every terrace begins with a conversation with the building — its structure, its waterproofing, its drainage. We coordinate with your engineers so the garden's weight, saturated, is always within safe limits.
On that base we build a lightweight, free-draining soil profile and a planting scheme chosen for exposure: plants that shrug off wind, glare and the reflected heat of a rooftop. Irrigation is designed in, not added on.
Finally we resolve the terrace as a usable space — the paths, edges, seating thresholds and lighting that make it somewhere people actually go, morning and evening.
Roof space is some of the most valuable, least-used area on any hotel or home. A properly engineered terrace garden turns it into cooler rooms below, a usable outdoor floor above, and a view worth selling — without risking the waterproofing that protects the whole building.
