(2017) Folly Function: Circle Shade 

 

New York, NY, (July 3rd, 2019) – Circle Shade is the winning project of Folly/Function 2017, an annual design/build competition in New York organized by The Architectural League and Socrates Sculpture Park. CircleShade is a refined and portable canopy system designed and developed by Eva Jensen Design as a kit-of-parts for quick assembly. The new elegant and minimal canopy system synthesizes renewal of current shade structures and portable tent concepts. It eliminates the center pole of traditional parasols, opening and closing maintenance of an umbrella, and offers an alternative to square tents while integrating counterweights as outdoor furniture.
