Outstanding projects
As Climate change The hot summer makes more intense-especially in public locations in public locations, the need for well-designed shade becomes more and more important. Architects and urban designers have a rich toolkit at their disposal, which draws both time-tested traditions and state-of-the-art innovation to create Oases shaded in urban fabrics. We dive, highlighting a diverse spectrum of approaches Solutions, from monumental structures to intimate, intervention on human-mannues.
From the reconsidered architectural archtypes to short -term urban gestures, today’s shadow -making strategies come in many recognizable categories yet. In the oldest and most permanent colonad – is a classical solution that provides both structural clarity and solar protection. These column corridors have long defined civic space, which guide the rhythmic movement, while cooling the shadow and cooling the surroundings. Light in appearance but equally timely, Pergolas make a more permeable type of shelter, which filter the sun. framework And often invite climbing plants to deepen the shade. Expanding at the behest, the canopies introduce bold overhead surfaces – projecting or standing alone from buildings – to collect, stop or make a shaded area to pass. Unlike Pergolas, their shadow is often fully generated by its own form and material, giving them a powerful sculpture statements. However, not all shadows are needed ReconciliationThinking designed Street furniture Cinematography can include shading elements to provide comfort on human scale, increase the daily experience of pedestrians and sometimes, a functional shade structure and line between a piece public art Is completely blurred. Some? Installation Use forms, materials and colors to create a unique beauty together, as well as providing welcome shades.

Beyond their dramatic appearance, they are vertical gardens with a crowd of work. Their strong steel frames support a diverse array of plants with plants, which form a lively, living Sunshade for the ground level.

By this modern paragola Vutopia lab Re -adding classical Chinese garden architecture to a white steel mesh corridor spread more than one kilometer. Described as a ‘wandering dragon-like’ form by architects, its complex design creates a dynamic interaction of light and shade, and serves as an important symbol in Chinese art and culture. In the final stages of the design, plants climbing plants such as visperia and jasmine will be seen climbing on the framework, which will turn the pergola into a succulent, vibrant green sunlight.

As a new entry building for Berlin’s Museum Island, by James-Simon-Galary David chipperfield There is a grand, modern colonial feature. The design forum serves as a continuity of architecture, which is originally imagined for the site, using a rhythmic sequence of thin, elegant columns to create a spacious, shaded prime. It not only provides a shelter route for Pergamonmuseum and Neues Museum, but also a major public space that protects visitors from the Sun, making UNESCO an integral part of MasterPlan to change the UNESCO world heritage site.

By Bosk de la Espareza Giancarlo majanti There is a standalone canopy structure that serves as a public plaza and sports court in the city of Altos Day Kazuka in Colombia. Its 700 square meter canopy includes a prefabricated dodecahedron wrapped in a mild and porous expanded steel lattice, providing cinematography while mimicking a group of trees. The primary purpose of the project is to create a huge, constant shaded place and a community meeting point, with integrated lighting that allows it to act as a glowing public platform at night, which replaces the pre -neglected area.
