STRUCTURELAB S1 – the sunshade system for superior demands

A curved textile membrane which is held up only from the top defines the distinctive shape of this newly-developed sunshade system. The umbrella creates a space of unique atmosphere as well by day as by night, when the S1 turns into a striking luminous sculpture. The Structurelab S1 is available in a variety of shapes, colors and sizes, starting from 3.50 metres in diameter. The choice of materials like powder-coated aluminum profiles or filigree fiber glass elements, contributes to the appearance of an extremly light and elegant construction. The S1 – awarded with the red dot design award 2006 - combines harmonic aesthetics with precise technology and defines a new era in the fields of outdoor sun shading devices.

The development in close cooperation with architects and membrane-engineers aimed at creating an innovative and unique shadingsystem and designelement. The result is the convincing synthesis of a sail's elegance and a mobile umbrella's flexibility and functionality.
