Please describe the project specifications

Our client at Walter Studios in Phoenix, AZ desired a stylish and functional shading solution for their outdoor courtyard adorned with local art pieces. To meet these specifications, three 16'x16' cantilevered GORILLABrellas with twisted tops were installed, boasting DualShade fabric in a vibrant yellow-orange color scheme. The project's primary goal was to provide ample shade for visitors and protect the artwork from harsh sunlight, thereby enhancing the overall experience in the courtyard. By addressing these requirements, the umbrellas successfully tackled the challenges of excessive heat and UV exposure, creating a comfortable and visually appealing environment to guests and artists of Walter Studios.
