ROOF TERRACE GRAFTWORKS (1999 NEW YORK)ARCHITECTS: LAWRENCE BLOUGH AND JOHN HENLE

This roof garden is on the 32nd storey of a New York apartment building. Designed to capture views of the East Riverand midtown MAnhattan, the curved, wooden screen also shields the terrace from mechanical equipment. The spiky trellis that crowns the garden is built from steel and wod hydris beams for wider spans, and is designed to mimic the flight pattern of migratory birds.

It is interesting that it uses for the chair. We can use the plastic pipe to make furniture. It also can create an interesting form of furniture.
