Amoeba Terrace, New York, NY
About the project
The 125 Square Foot residential terrace, accessible only from the apartment’s master bedroom, is enclosed with a combination of built and vegetated screening devices, including an overhead pergola. A stone path provides the primary passage from the master bedroom to the porcelain paver deck, where visitors are greeted by a unique landscape art sculpture. The intimate setting is decorated with armchairs that offer a view of a river rock bed, which is embedded with three amoeba-shaped planters.
Outcome
The variety of materials and form, break the rigid exposed terrace into a sheltered private extension of interior living space.
