Abstract

The aim of this study is to create a checklist of roof garden design criteria. This scope of work includes an encompassing review of international standards studies such as German Landscape Research, Development, and Construction Society; the American Society for Testing and Materials; the U.S. Green Building Counci; and Green Roofs for Healthy Cities, whereas the generated checklist was evaluated in the Marmara Forum Mall. As a result of the study, an answer was sought to the question, “What are the prerequisites for a roof garden serving the needs of users in today's conditions?” whereas on-site detection, observation, and photography were used as working methods. As a result, in considering the evaluation of the checklist on a scale of the Marmara Forum Mall, climatic data, activities with its hard structure, promenade areas, and designs of plantlife and water elements in soft structure are moderately sufficient, whereas it was determined there is no problem in the roof furniture design and maintenance.
