Project Overview
This project involved designing and installing three distinct outdoor spaces for a residential townhouse in Dumbo, Brooklyn, NY: the front stoop, backyard, and rooftop. Each space featured Loll planters made from recycled HDPE milk cartons, thoughtfully planted with a mix of evergreens and flowering perennials suited to both shady backyard areas and sunny rooftop conditions. The project demonstrates a balance of sustainability, creative planting design, and hands-on installation, transforming multiple areas of the property into cohesive, functional, and visually engaging outdoor environments.
