Home is where the heart is. We had a lot of fun designing this rooftop garden in Red Hook, Brooklyn. The design includes composite deck tiles, a wood and steel pergola, container plants, and up-lighting. See more of our projects at www.amberfreda.com.

This rooftop garden on Manhattan’s Upper West Side features comfortable furnishings and contemporary black fiberglass planters. We recommended changing out the existing utilitarian concrete pavers for these lovely light grey porcelain pavers, instead, which come in many appealing finishes and patterns. Our plantings include Hetzi junipers, maiden grass, creeping Jenny, and ‘Autumn Joy’ sedum.

The 820 square foot rooftop garden project atop Umbrella House includes the design of a structural steel frame comprised of W14x6 beams and concrete planking to support the raised 8” planting beds. A stormwater management strategy utilizes a mixture of gravel with the planting soil and aims to serve as an example for urban gardens across the New York City. The first planting was in Spring 2015 and so far the garden has produced zucchini, tomatoes, okra, broccoli, spinach, beets, peas, eggplant, lettuce and Swiss chard, among other vegetables and a plethora of flowers and herbs.

The owners of this shared Brooklyn rooftop garden needed to create three individual spaces without feeling too closed off, dark, or boxed in. The solution is a series of custom cedar trellises at varying heights mixed with lightweight planters that delineate each of the owner's deeded spaces. Flowering vines grow through the trellises to provide added privacy during the warmer months as well as pops of color and texture. River birch trees offer dappled shade and dimension, flowering perennials add color, fragrance, and attract pollinators, and ornamental grasses provide texture and movement while also masking some ugly HVAC units. The resulting rooftop space is open and breezy while also giving each family their own special private oasis.
