Older penthouses often have great bones but can lack vibrancy. Our recent North Sydney project demonstrates how custom planter boxes can bring a space to life. We designed and installed 15 black fibre cement planter boxes with Magnolias, transforming this rooftop terrace into a lively, inviting green space.
🌿 Project Overview

Quantity: 15 Custom Planter Boxes

🪴 Design & Material
We used fibre cement for its strength, lightweight design, and refined texture, ideal for rooftop planters. The matte black finish provides a sleek, modern touch, letting the Magnolias become the star of the terrace.
Each planter box was:
✅ Custom-sized to fit the terrace layout perfectly
✅ Handcrafted locally in Sydney
✅ Primed and UV-sealed for lasting colour
✅ Fitted with drainage suitable for rooftop planting
📏 Perfect Dimensions for Revitalisation
Our 1525mm x 600mm x 400mm planters provide the ideal balance of height and width — large enough for Magnolias and other architectural plants, yet slim enough to maintain walkway space and terrace flow.
These dimensions are ideal for older terraces where careful balance is needed to bring greenery and life without overcrowding.
🌱 Bringing Life to the Terrace
The combination of black fibre cement planters and Magnolias transformed this North Sydney penthouse terrace into a vibrant, welcoming space.
Magnolias were chosen for their:
-
Bold, architectural foliage
-
Seasonal blooms that add colour and interest
-
Low maintenance for rooftop environments
The result is a terrace that feels alive, fresh, and visually appealing — a perfect contrast to its previously dated appearance.
🏗️ Built to Last
Unlike plastic alternatives, our custom fibre cement planter boxes are durable, reinforced, and weather-resistant, ensuring the terrace maintains its fresh look year after year.
We use premium materials and local craftsmanship, plus quality checks on every planter before delivery to ensure perfection.
