Shade Sails

Background

The terraces around the Palais des Nations, in particular at the H-Building, hold great potential as collaborative outdoor workspaces or as peaceful havens to take a break, recharge, or have a chat with colleagues. In the summer, they are exposed to intense sun and heat. With the installation of shade sails, the unused terraces could be turned into welcoming, shaded retreat areas that support wellbeing and provide space for informal exchanges.

Scope

Install weather-resistant, eco-friendly shade sails to create a comfortable, functional space for delegates and staff, without altering the building infrastructure.
