London Terrace Transformed

Type of project: Garden Terrace Refurbishment

A  feature wall — designed to impress after dark as well as in daylight.
Brief

Turn an urban eyesore into a showstopping outdoor retreat

Green Envee was commissioned to transform a neglected rooftop terrace in London into a private sanctuary. The space had real potential — but a graffiti-covered boundary wall, zero planting, and a lack of atmosphere were standing firmly in the way. The client wanted something dramatic, low-maintenance, and genuinely special.

Challenge

A blank canvas with a few complications

The existing wall was an unattractive concrete block structure that had been targeted by graffiti. Beyond the aesthetic problem, the rooftop setting presented structural and logistical considerations for installation, and the client wanted a result that would feel lush and established from day one — not a work in progress.

Solution

A  feature wall — designed to impress after dark as well as in daylight

Green Envee designed and installed a full green wall, combining a rich variety of foliage textures and tones to create depth, movement, and year-round visual interest. Integrated uplighting was carefully positioned to dramatically illuminate the wall after dark, transforming the terrace into an evening entertaining space. A centrepiece was created to house a statement artwork, framed by planting and bathed in warm light — making it the undeniable focal point of the space. The result is a private urban oasis that feels a world away from the city surrounding it.

Odette of Green Envee was very personable & warm, while maintaining a level of professionalism that is admirable. She has the ability to make you feel like you've known her forever. I just knew I could trust her & my gut proved correct. Odette kindly connected me with an electrician to help to tranform the panels with wired spotlight lighting & outdoor artwork, which she didn't have to do. She exceeded expectations. It was seamless & Odette has a great team around her. Tom, the electrician, was simply the best. I trawled the internet for wall panels for a long time, it was rare to find a company which both supplied & fitted in a residential setting to such a high standard. Odette communicated well & did exactly as she said she would. She was able to fit my project in within days! I cannot recommend Green Envee enough. I have had compliments on the style, fitting, & quality of GreenEnvee's work, it is Green Envee by name and nature. Do not think about it for a moment longer, you will not regret partnering with Green Envee. Esther
