 TOP 10 TRENDS 

TerraceTrees

Trees are the lifeblood of roof gardens. Are trees optimal focal points? We think so! Most of our roof garden designs evolve around key tree planting, situated as anchor focal points to provide shelter, shade, visual interest & seasonal change.

ModernArtwork

Is art idiomatic? Artworks elevate roof gardens like no other feature, sustaining gripping focal points, enveloped by foliage, planters & lights. Many of our projects display commissioned sculpture, wall art or personal artefact, artfully presented.

PlanterVoids

At times subtraction = more. Why void planters? An empty space can become a riveting focal point, where views are extended, space expanded & LED light contour tracing creates dramatic ambience as an integral of bespoke planters.

OrnamentalGrasses

Wispiness = happiness. Are grasses the rooftop designer besties? I should coco... Rooftops enjoy warm microclimates, where grasses can do their thing to elevate every planting scheme in all seasons + autumnal blooms.

ColourPalette

Why’s colour important? Warm, deep hues in the backdrop elevate focal points, & at times becoming focalised elements in their own right. We adore maroon, teal, purple, blue & green as tints in our bespoke planters, walls & features.

ArchitecturalRooftops

Are architectural roof gardens all about focal points? Sculptural qualities define strong geometric layouts, planter shapes & plant outlines, elevated by lighting. Specimen trees, art & bespoke features are winners-take-all up on London’s rooftops.

LandmarksRooftops

If trees, art & planters aren’t enough focal points, will iconic landmarks be cynosures? The borrowed landscape technique reinvents itself up on London rooftops, framed, revealed & adored to sustain an important link to the intrinsic skyline.

PlanterX Factor

Planter sui generis? Look no further than any great London roof garden design for container inventiveness, where people & nature indulge powder-coated chic media in tandem, where ordinary settings are revitalised into exciting architectural scenes.

Before& After

Is a roof terrace makeover the greatest focal point? Once completely transformed, with a sunset, a landmark vista framed, bespoke planters lush in plants, seating comfy & lighting on, a roof garden becomes the finest room of the residence.

Roof TerraceFurniture

Is furniture a good focal point? Defo! With great seating layouts, all amenities at hand, surrounded by plants & bathed in lighting, furniture takes centre stage. Best opt for heavy sets to resist wind which engulfs rooftops, particularly by the river.
