Shading in Style

Turtle By Amphitheater

Challenged to create adequate shade for an existing outdoor amphitheater at the Turtle Bay Exploration Park without obscuring existing views within this natural setting, our solution was to design a series of canvas “louvers” suspended between thin structural piers. These louvered panels were angled to best protect the audience from the hot summer sun, while allowing air circulation through the structure. Additional cooling was provided through an integral misting system within the cantilevered structure.
