POV
To Create a surface with a hierarchy representation pattern.
Project Description
The canopy act as a ceiling surface and its sole purpose is only to provide shading. By incorporating simple pattern of cones overlapping each other, the concept of hierarchy is represented. Even though it may looks as if the canopy is heavily weight, it is not. The cones are only sitting behind one another, attaching from tip to tip. Their hollow quality gives them the advantage of being lighter.
User Profile
There are numerous uses for the canopy from events such as game tailgating to resting.
