Urban Umbrella Canada
Simplified New Look
Protection and style. Creativity and technical knowledge. Architecture and engineering. Urban Umbrella exemplifies Agencie’s skill in balancing expertise in style and form. Our winning entry in the City of New York Urbanshed Competition, creating an alternative to ugly boxed scaffolding, is now being utilized in Canada.
Urban Umbrella plays to our structural inventiveness. It utilizes our strengths of advanced analysis and complex structure design. Our primary area of expertise is special structures. This includes those with non-euclidean geometries, composite materials, and exposed elements that require both analytic and creative thinking.
The unique interdisciplinary teams behind our work blend technical grit with imagination. Our approach is to simplify, clarify, and establish rhythm. Special structures are our speciality. We create transformable structures, sculptures, pedestrian bridges, and canopies that are engineered to perform, and please.
Practicality, durability, and efficiency inform our design philosophy. Considerations of buildability and cost are integral. It’s an approach that makes the potential we see in your spaces and structures possible.
