Shade Architecture
Designing buildings and city spaces for shade as the world heats up.
The Challenge
Climate adaptation in cities: treating shade as designable, monetizable infrastructure.
The Vision
As global temperatures rise, shade becomes urban infrastructure. This practice specializes in designing shaded buildings and public spaces, integrating solar canopies so the same structures that cool people also generate power.
