This rooftop garden in Bainbridge Island, Washington, sits 12 feet above ground level on a property that was engineered to support its weight. Cedar planter boxes around the deck are filled with a lightweight blend of compost, vermiculite, lava rock, and topsoil that's freshened with compost each year to keep nutrient levels topped off. Inside are a few low-maintenance permanent plants for year-round interest, plus seasonal annuals for spots of color.

Integrated Cabinets
These homeowners designed this kitchen using the concept of integrated space. Visually the kitchen, rimmed with a boomerang-curved bar, is a seamless extension of the living and dining rooms. Can't spot the refrigerator? That's the idea. Panels of maple with insets of bird's-eye maple disguise the appliance. - Dream Time
