Arrange the roof terrace within its existing edges
This tool concerns an existing roof-level outdoor activity surface, not the form or covering of a building's roof. Explore movable furniture and containers while retaining access, edges and visible roof services.
What to explore
- Compare a small lounge group with compact rooftop dining.
- Keep roof access and service routes visually distinct from furniture.
- Explore restrained containers within existing parapet boundaries.
From a brief to a concept
Confirm an existing terrace
Upload a suitable photo and choose rooftop with the current levels retained.
Keep additions movable
Edit the proposal toward modest furniture and containers, excluding heavy construction or service relocation.
Compare access and edges
Confirm, generate and inspect roof doors, parapets, drains and equipment against the source.

Suggested brief
Arrange a small movable lounge group on this existing roof terrace, keeping the access route, parapets, drains, services and floor extent as shown. Use restrained containers away from service points. No pool, new roof, slab extension or fixed planting beds.
How to review the result
- Compare perimeter protection, access and service points with the source image.
- Assess furniture grouping without assuming the image establishes roof usability or load capacity.
What the image cannot establish
- The tool does not verify structural loads, waterproofing, wind, guards or roof occupancy permissions.
- AI may erase roof services or redraw edges; visible preservation needs manual review.
Questions about this workflow
Is this the same as roof design?
No. Rooftop design concerns an existing outdoor activity surface; roof design studies the visible building envelope finish.
Can it turn an unused roof into a terrace?
A concept cannot establish occupancy, support or approval. Check those conditions before considering actual use.
Can I add a rooftop pool?
This workflow does not validate the significant structural and water-system requirements of a pool.
Will it preserve roof drains?
List visible drains as keepers and inspect the result; never use generated paving to infer drainage performance.
