The soybomb roof... Pt.2

 This is the state of the roof just after the kitchen was finished.
 This parapet wall was nice.  But dangerous. A friend actually fell of this roof at one point.  (not on the deck part mind you)
 


  
 As soon as we had access to the roof, i had put a tomato plant (and then planter) on the roof.  The success of this plus the realisation that it's easy to grow stuff led to a series of planters being built.  This eventually evolved into what the roof array is now.
the tree was added because the roof was brutally exposed during the hot summers here in Toronto.  We didnt want to put up a tacky umbrella that would blow away either.  So we put in a tree. worked not too bad
