Tensile fabric stage canopy

Atkins Global approached Base, seeking our assistance with the design, fabrication, and installation of a 4.7 x 7m multi-use stage canopy as part of the redevelopment for Cardiff’s big Canal Quarter project.

Working with the main contractor Knights Brown, we proposed a bespoke and elegant looking canopy, incorporating their desired elements for lighting and rainwater collection, fulfilling the client’s vision for this project.

Results

The dock feeder canal has been revitalised by the excavation of the central reservation along Churchill Way, and Base’s canopy stands out as a striking focal point amidst the newly installed rain gardens and outdoor seating area in this high-quality, multipurpose, regeneration project.
