Pollinator Parking

This two-bay carport is the first green roof residential structure in Alamo Heights, TX. Comprised of Douglas Fir and Cedar structure, the chief design goal was to create a tidy and handsome multipurpose space (as well as a truly usable parking structure). The green roof on the carport adds pollinator habitat and pervious cover back to the yard and presents a pleasant scene to the main house living area, almost seven feet higher than the carport floor.
