currently completely unused as a terrace these outdoor space seems to have very little practical used beyond a planting terrace. however, it is quite possible at the area of the bedroom can make for a very nice place to have your morning cup with joe.

Expert Opinion:
the terrace has a decent size, but as the virtual image suggests, something needs to be done to block the views of the unimproved building roof.

Expert Opinion:
the decent footprint offers enough utility for small gatherings without feeling cramped. abundant, mature vegetation transforms the space into a genuine outdoor room, providing a lushness that’s rare in the city. it’s an enjoyable, well-scaled retreat that balances social functionality with a high-quality, private atmosphere.

excellent proportions for entertaining with distinctly separate areas for lounging and dining. the dining section comes complete with a full summer kitchen. the elevator shaft offers much needed wind protection, and is a perfect movie screen
