Please describe the project specifications
When two companies come together in a true collaboration, greatness can be achieved!
Our customer’s client had a common request, a tent to be installed if the forecast calls for rain. The caveat, it needs to cover the entire terrace, the lawn, have the ability to work unilaterally depending on what part they need covered, connect the lawn under the bridge, have the ability to be installed and removed quickly, fit perfectly along the perimeter of the house, match the aesthetic of the house, and most importantly, do not block the view of the ocean.
Known for our ability of customization, we were asked if we were interested in taking on this challenge with them. With a joint site visit and the challenge posed, we were in. The number one priority, create a structure that would meet their customers needs. Multiple site visits later, an engineer on board, and a true collaboration of both teams, a suitable design was created and manufactured.
As production ensued, so did test installations off site, changes to design and ultimately a test installation at the customers location. As with all projects, things are very different on paper than in actuality. There were a few last minute additions and changes as anticipated, but overall, challenge complete!
The result, a seamless structure for each area of the property that could also be broken down into 7 individual structures that function individually and together to combine to 5,000+ square feet of coverage, a black powder coated 120mm x 300mm frame featuring 30 guage clear fabric with a black coated border, and most importantly, a perfect view of the ocean!
