The Terrace garden is an extension of a renovated Penthouse in Greenwich Village.  The exterior spaces are framed by a series of custom planters cantilevered over a perimeter bed of pebbles.    Filled with grasses of varying heights and textures, the sound of rustling grass in the wind forms an effective screen to the traffic below, frames city  views and offers a quite, soothing respite.
