Penthouse Garden


A sexy rooftop garden in Minneapolis, Minnesota
This modern garden is located on the 10th floor of a converted historic warehouse in downtown Minneapolis. The landscape was designed by oslund.and.assoc in conjunction with the project architects, Anmahian Winton as an extention of the interior spaces and as a counterpoint to the historic urban context. Storm water is collected and reused to sustain the plantings.
The garden terrace synthesizes the architecture and the landscape within a shared modernist vocabulary. The loft architecture and landscape sustain a symbiotic relationship where each is enriched by the other, managing light and form outside of the traditional garden-residence paradigm.
