Low maintenance residential rooftop deck

Even though we can’t all have a stunning outdoor roof deck in our home, it’s still a lot of fun to dream about. And when we dream about residential rooftop decks, 9 times out of 10 we’re dreaming about this one.

Built using Bison Ipê Wood Tiles, this outdoor deck was made to be extremely low maintenance. In fact, the wood tiles used for this outdoor deck consist of super dense hardwood – meaning it will require zero maintenance for years to come (and look absolutely gorgeous the entire time).

Vegetable-inspired rooftop deck design

If you have an organic café on site, why not leverage unused rooftop space as a vegetable garden? That’s was this company's brilliant idea. Designed and built using Bison Wood Deck Tiles and Versadjust Pedestals, this is now the perfect spot for vegetable containers.

And did we mention that it also includes a miniature golf course?
