Every urban dweller the world over dreams about a roof deck and this one doesn't disappoint. The pergola frames the space but doesn't obscure the view. The water feature replaces the sounds of traffic with the sound of gently falling water. Adding just two pillows to a wooden bench softens everything up everything in this outdoor room.

Rooftop gardens are great places to employ structured design elements. As with art, your choices are about line, scale and texture. The horizontal lines draw your eye out to the horizon on this rooftop deck. Do you have a city garden? Please share a photo below!

This sunshade — more of a trellis, actually, but resembling other shades in this ideabook — protects the people sitting below it, not people on other side of a glass wall. The incorporation of the wood structure with ivy from the planters behind the seating is wonderful.
