• Roof gardens and roof terraces are places where you can reach for the stars; when it comes to the architectural design of these exclusive oases, the imagination knows no bounds. Roof gardens bring greenery into the city and improve the microclimate in metropolises. Some people grow their own vegetables there, others frame spacious lounge areas or a pool with shrubs and grasses. This illustrated book presents private roof gardens and roof terraces from all over the world. Spectacular skyscraper penthouses and sophisticated solutions for previously unused rooftops are represented, as are new residential buildings where roof terraces are part of the overall ecological concept. They all convey a unique feeling of life between heaven and earth: peace and relaxation are the focus in these paradisiacal places, from which you can literally gaze serenely down on the hustle and bustle of the world.
