In the heart of Dhaka’s bustling Hatirjheel, where concrete meets water and city lights dance on the lake, a rooftop transformation is redefining urban living. This project blends nature, architecture, and serenity into a single elevated experience — a rooftop garden and room designed for peace, productivity, and pleasure.

Garden Concept
The rooftop garden is designed as a lush escape from the urban grind. Raised beds filled with flowering plants, herbs, and dwarf fruit trees line the perimeter, while a central pergola offers shaded seating. Decorative potted plants and vertical green walls add texture and color, creating a microclimate that cools the space and soothes the senses.

- Artificial waterfall and ambient lighting
- Eco-friendly irrigation system
- Shaded lounge with rattan furniture
Rooftop Room Design
Adjacent to the garden is a sleek, glass-walled room that serves as a reading nook, guest suite, or creative studio. The interior blends minimalist design with natural materials — think wooden floors, linen curtains, and indoor plants.
Room Highlights:
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with lake views
- Foldable glass doors for seamless indoor-outdoor flow
- Built-in bookshelves and a compact workspace
- Smart lighting and climate control
- Acoustic insulation for quiet retreat
Why Hatirjheel?
Hatirjheel’s panoramic views and proximity to water make it an ideal canvas for rooftop living. The project leverages the location’s natural beauty while offering a private sanctuary above the city’s rhythm.
Impact & Inspiration
This rooftop project isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s a lifestyle upgrade. It promotes mental wellness, supports urban biodiversity, and adds value to the property. With Dhaka North City Corporation offering tax incentives for rooftop gardens, it’s also a smart investment.
