GREEN ROOF

Modern-industrial raised beds define rooms on this 5th story intensive green roof for a luxury apartment building in Old City, Philadelphia. 

Single and multi-stem trees create airy walls between seating areas. The elevated ground among the trees is filled with perennials for season interest that can withstand the weather extremes on this roof. Plants are irrigated using stormwater harvested from the building.
