Courtyard Umbrellas Medina, 2007-2011
Contractor: Rasch + Bradatsch (former Frei Otto)
Client: Kingdom of Saudi Arabia / Saudi Bin Ladin Group
Scope: design proposals to final design
The office had designed and delivered foldable umbrellas for sunprotection in courtyards in Medina/Saudi-Arabia several years before.
As desired by the client they should be enlarged to become overlapping and provide additional rain protection.
My scope was to produce the membrane design, including a light simulation and presentation drawings.
