The Penthouse Pool and Lounge is a membership-only urban resort designed to feel like an urban oasis of relaxation and nourishment.
On the rooftop of VIDA Fitness U Street, The Penthouse includes a 60-foot heated pool and a variety of poolside lounge options.
The Brief
As the highest point in a building, the pool area of a penthouse is more susceptible to high winds and extreme weather conditions. It was also typically surrounded by hard surfaces like concrete, which made it feel more uninviting and unwelcoming.
The Solution
Potted plants were used to create privacy, to add color and interest, and to soften hard surfaces. A variety of plants were used to create a sense of space and provided texture and interest, and to attract wildlife.
By adding high-quality planters, the space transformed into a luxurious destination full of intrigue and life.
The Result
By utilizing pots of different sizes, there is a natural-looking poolscape that is both aesthetically pleasing and inviting to guests.
Colorful plants have added pops of contrast and interest, combining well with more subdued plantings to provide a serene setting.
