Rooftop balcony mural in Washington DC featuring Jefferson Building landscape blending with terrace garden by Yulia Avgustinovich

Rooftop Balcony Mural in Washington DC | Yulia Avgustinovich

This private rooftop balcony mural was created in Washington, DC in 2025 for a residential terrace overlooking a lush garden setting. Painted on a wall positioned between windows, the mural was designed to visually dissolve the surface into the surrounding flowers and bushes growing throughout the balcony, creating a seamless transition between painted and living elements.

The composition features the iconic Thomas Jefferson Building reflected in a calm pond, framed by blooming trees, soft foliage, and layered plant life. Flowers painted in the foreground echo the real vegetation on the terrace, allowing the mural to blend naturally into the space rather than stand apart from it. This integration enhances the feeling of depth, openness, and continuity between architecture and landscape.

Scale and placement were carefully considered to ensure the artwork complemented the existing windows and architectural lines. The mural adds visual interest without overwhelming the space, offering a peaceful focal point that feels both grounded in place and intimately connected to the surrounding environment. The imagery draws on Washington, DC’s architectural heritage while maintaining a soft, garden-inspired atmosphere appropriate for a private outdoor retreat.

Executed using professional-grade, exterior-appropriate materials, the mural was created with durability and longevity in mind. Attention was given to color stability, surface preparation, and finishes suitable for an exposed rooftop environment. Equally important was the use of low-odor, residential-safe materials, ensuring comfort during and after installation.
