EXTENSIVE GREEN ROOF AND ROOFTOP KITCHEN
This multi-use rooftop overlooking the Prudential Center in the heart of Boston’s Back Bay neighborhood maximizes the homeowner’s living space with an outdoor kitchen, roof deck, bench, and two extensive green roofs.
To create a flexible space for relaxing and entertaining, Recover worked with homeowners to design and install all elements above the waterproof membrane, including 375 square feet of hardwood deck tiles with copper edging, a custom built bench, stainless steel cabinetry, and hardwood cladding. On the north and south sides, the roof deck is framed by two lightweight sedum extensive green roofs integrated with smart drip irrigation, adding color and pollinator habitat to the panoramic skyline.
