I Took A Space Up-Top And Transformed It Into A Color Pop, Over And Over Again (13 Pics)

There is unique creative freedom within this rooftop space, each season having the opportunity to reimagine the design of the bar area. This is a designer’s (my) dream, to be able to enjoy a space over and over again.

I like to use color in urban saturated environments to create a contrast to its gray surroundings. What better way to enjoy views of a city than within a colorful installation?

Inspiration for season 1 looked at neons, symmetry, live-edge acrylic, Pop Art & artists that have used color and print within their work. Season 2 captures a cozy winter hub, inspiration was centered around a winter lodge design, rich red furnishing with warm lighting, vines and the introduction of a wooden pergola. Season 3, looking at tropical flowers and boho interiors. Taking the floral colors to impact the wall and bar design, flooring and furniture and create a tropical oasis.

The space isn’t designed to feel luxurious, it’s intended to make guests feel welcome. A new space for guests to experience each season – it’s cool, but not pretentious. My design intention for the space was to make people want to make the hike up the 5 levels to the rooftop, not just for the city views, but for the colorful environment.

Do you redo the design every year? Every season? It's a neat way to look at it, the way you can completely change the way a space feels without changing the underlying architecture. I like your work!

Thank you, appreciate your comments and kind words! Each season the space gets a make-over. Summer season April - September, followed by a small break to redesign and fabricate ready for November - February. It’s exciting to redesign the space, but also fun for the regular customers who get to experience something new every few months.
