About this product
Architonic ID: 20001164
Year of Launch: 2018
This compact, asymmetrical, Acacia-shaped umbrella fits the limited space of a balcony or small patio. Its clever design lets you create all the shade of a larger umbrella with a much reduced surface area. Simply use the handle and turn Acacia to the sun. Optional lighting under the canopy keeps the daylight coming a little longer after the sun goes down. Instead of closing the umbrella, simply remove the canvas and store it in the bag. What’s left is a beautiful tree-like sculpture that can weather the year outdoors.

Concept
Imagine you’re in the savannah with this compact, asymmetrical parasol. Turn Acacia to follow the sun and create a shadow wherever you want. Just like the African tree of the same name, this parasol captures a maximum of sunshine with a minimum surface area.
