Visit the Urban Oasis

Commissioned as Phase Two of a rooftop estate, this Residence offers expanded guest lodging, an extension of the rooftop terrace, a green roof, a sculpture garden experience, and additional interior entertaining options.

Design Vision

The rooftop condominium realizes the value potential by celebrating the city and river views from above and connecting the highly appointed Guest accommodations to an ultimate roof terrace and garden experience. The design creates an architectural and interior aesthetic, complementing the main residence while remaining unique, providing a more relaxed, casual character. The details draw from the local urban context and formulate a modern renovated warehouse/loft experience.

Distinctive Features

The highlight of the design is a large open entertainment concept whose plan incorporates a media rich environment utilizing multiple media screens viewable from all locations, including an oversized 90” LED TV at the Living Room. Further enhancements include a Ping Pong Area with adjacent lounge seating, a full Beverage Bar including a personalized beer dispenser, full-size beverage refrigerator, and curvilinear bar seating. A complete gourmet Kitchen and adjacent circular Dining Area support and complement the exciting entertaining experience. The ambiance is defined by the curved, vaulted, wood ceiling with metal beams, columns, and basketry. A custom spiral stair leads to a private mezzanine seating area with an indoor fire table. Floor to ceiling windows beckon the details of the cityscape and tower above the river walk below. Hand scraped wide plank wood floors, along with oversized urban art, complete the modern warehouse urban concept. Two Bedroom Suites with Walk-In Closets, a dedicated Laundry/Mudroom, and a separate, private entry complete the Guest experience.
