The structures are between 20 and 50 metres tall and mimic the form of trees while generating solar power, collecting rainwater, and acting as air vent ducts for the nearby conservatories. At night the canopy is illuminated with coloured lights, turning it into a popular tourist spectacle.
The following collection showcases ten awe-inspiring canopy designs through section drawings. While they include a range of sizes and materials, the projects are all made with creative structural systems that draw our gaze up to the sky.
The objective was to lightly inhabit the canopy, in a discreet, almost invisible way. The walk is generally narrow and slender and widens only at two places, one for the view, one for the shade.
The design features a large, expansive roof that resembles a tree canopy, made from wooden plates and covered with a transparent protective layer. This design provides both shade and protection from the rain, much like a tree’s leaves.
The most pronounced structural differences between forest types were found in trees between 10 and 25 cm in diameter at breast height (dbh). In second-growth stands, trees in the 10–25 cm dbh size class were more abundant and differed in allometry.
Creating a new walk that complements the existing ones, could only be IN THE CANOPY of the beautiful and imposing trees of the Park.
This paper describes and reflects on the design and manufacturing process of the Tree-Structure canopy for the WestendGate Tower in Frankfurt upon Main, completed early 2011. The project investigated fabrication and assembly principles of complex steel structures as well as the integration of contemporary computational design, engineering ...
Orproject, a London-based architecture practice, completed a room-sized, nature-inspired canopy titled, 'Vana,' for the India Design Forum exhibited in The Brick House in New Delhi.
Mitchell Schwarzer explores the dizzying heights of the ‘last biotic frontier’ of arboreal architecture with its high platforms, walkways and canopy craft.
ReCovered features an abstract tree canopy installation, immersing visitors in a space reminiscent of a grove of trees on a warm day. The exhibition showcases native tree species and invites visitors to share their thoughts on the importance of trees in their lives and memories.
