This project in Des Plaines, IL focused on enhancing an upper-level outdoor living space with low-maintenance improvements designed to increase comfort, greenery, and year-round usability. The work included the installation of premium artificial turf across the deck and the addition of flowering Valentine’s Crush Hibiscus plants to existing planters, creating a vibrant and inviting rooftop environment.
Project Goals
Improve the appearance of the rooftop deck.
Create a comfortable, low-maintenance outdoor surface.
Add seasonal color with ornamental flowering plants.
Enhance the functionality of the outdoor living space.
Provide year-round beauty with minimal upkeep.
Artificial Turf Installation
Approximately 600 square feet of premium artificial turf was installed across the upper deck.
The synthetic turf creates a soft, attractive surface while eliminating the maintenance requirements associated with natural grass. It provides a clean, durable outdoor area ideal for relaxing and entertaining throughout the year.
Planter Enhancements
To complement the new deck surface, Valentine’s Crush Hibiscus shrubs were installed in the existing planters located on the deck.
These flowering plants add vibrant seasonal color, texture, and visual interest while creating a welcoming atmosphere for the outdoor living space.
Why Outdoor Living Spaces Matter

Combining low-maintenance materials with colorful plantings creates an inviting environment that can be enjoyed throughout the growing season while requiring minimal maintenance.
