ODA-Architecture

Based in New York, ODA-Architecture shapes commercial high-rises and civic grand halls through expressive structural geometries, where interlocking arches dissolve standard floor expressions and terraced landscapes integrate directly into building envelopes. The portfolio serves as a strong reference when detailing continuous roof topographies, specifying sculptural cladding that transitions into planter beds, or resolving off-axis bridging structures across multi-use volumes.

Aerial view of extensive interconnected rooftop gardens, terraces, and louvered mechanical screens across mid-rise urban housing by ODA-Architecture.

An aerial precedent for multi-level urban rooftop integration, combining extensive green roofs, slatted mechanical enclosures, and communal terraces across dense housing blocks.

What we like about this project
The sheer scale of continuous interconnected roof topography functioning as a private parkland network.

Geometry
A stepped complex of mid-rise volumes featuring extensive interconnected roof terraces, green roofs, and screened mechanical penthouses.
Facade system
Wooden slatted privacy and mechanical screens combined with extensive green roof and glass penthouse structures.
Structural guess
Concrete slab framing supporting heavy landscaped roof loads and lightweight rooftop screen structures.
Spatial scale
Extensive multiblock aerial scale showing multi-story roof amenity spaces and human-sized furniture and plantings below.
Lighting
Bright afternoon sun casting long, soft shadows across the rooftops with a distant hazy skyline backdrop.
Atmosphere
Expansive, verdant, and active community-focused density raised above the city.
Environmental context
Dense urban neighborhood context with mid-rise residential blocks and a distant skyscraper skyline under a clear sky.
Spatial experience
A sprawling layered urban landscape overhead that transforms conventional roofs into an inhabitable continuous amenity network.
Composition rhythm
Horizontal terracing steps rhythmically back, interrupted by vertical louvered screens and scattered tree plantings.
