The trickiest part of a rooftop setup like this has to be lighting the perimeter without the gear dominating the space, and the way Alvaro M. handled it is worth studying. Continuous RGB LED strips run beneath the coping of the parapet walls, so the light reads as part of the architecture rather than as fixtures bolted on top. That is a clean solution to a genuinely hard problem.
The build mixes materials and light sources nicely. The deck is laid in parallel wooden planks, with sections of artificial green turf breaking it up. Ground-mounted spotlights pick out potted trees, shrubs, and wall surfaces, while the furnishings include a dining table with chairs, twin sun loungers, and a modular outdoor sectional sofa. The components list is short and sensible: Hue bulbs, a Hue proyector, and a 220V RGB LED strip.
The standout detail for me is the mini pond. It is a rectangular raised black tub holding water, submerged potted aquatic plants, and a small central fountain nozzle, and a horizontal linear strip fixture mounted on the wall above it lights the whole basin. Potted pink flowering plants ring the edge, which must look lovely against the water after dark.
The one open question is the electronics. The specific pump model, the lighting controller, and the components driving the whole thing are not clear, so anyone hoping to copy this would need to ask about the guts of it. Even so, as a piece of custom garden and architectural lighting, the result speaks for itself.
