Snug opposite Shakespeare's Globe, favourably positioned on a 6th floor up-close landmark views, this Mediterranean roof garden enjoys vistas of St Paul’s behind it & Tate, the Globe & Millennium & Southwark Bridges in front. Situated in EC4, this compact rooftop garden features a redolent,verdant cascade of Mediterranean plant species & cosy Manutti sofas.
With our clients in Portugal for parts of the year, this rooftop echoes their Mediterranean lifestyle. The plants endure well in this 360-degree sunny and windy prospect, resisting River Thames’ airstreams, heat & pollution.
The breadth of iconic landmarks provides architectural eye candy day & night, where the roof garden’s design merges fluidly into the architectonic skyline. Bespoke porthole orange planters, white & grey paires of slimline troughs & tree planters provide lasting homes for a biodiverse biome of Mediterranean plants.
Selected Mediterranean plant species include Stachys, Prostanthera, Pittosporum, Pinus, Phillyrea, Nerium, Nepeta, Lithodora, Libertia, Lavandula, Hebe, Dasylirion, Chamaerops, Astelia, Arbutus, Agave & Agapanthus.
Glass balustrades, Ipe decking, weatherproof Manutti furniture, irrigation & lighting provide year-round indulgent alfresco living, maximising the small breadth, devised for contemporary comfortableness.
