Rooftop Terrace in Midwood, Brooklyn

Key Features of the Rooftop Terrace

This rooftop terrace in Midwood, Brooklyn, was transformed into a modern retreat for a new residential building. Our role in the project involved working with the general contractor during the building’s construction. The design focused on creating a modern, low-maintenance environment that complements the urban surroundings. Here’s a summary of the key features:

• Porcelain pavers installed on a pedestal system, allowing easy access to the roof membrane for maintenance when required.
• A pre-fabricated aluminum fire pit fueled by propane serves as the centerpiece of the seating area, offering warmth and an inviting ambiance for evening gatherings.
• Ambient lighting was integrated throughout, including along the perimeter and around the seating area, to ensure a well-lit and safe environment at night.
• Minimalist metal privacy screens were added, creating a semi-enclosed space that still maintains the open, airy feel of the rooftop terrace.
