Courtyard Canopy for the Primary School in Święta Katarzyna
In 2025, we designed and delivered a compact canopy for the primary school courtyard in Święta Katarzyna.
Year: 2025
Location: Święta Katarzyna, Poland
Surface area: 25 m²
Material: PVC membrane
Structure: Abastran Sp. z o.o.
Scope of work: construction design, execution design
A PVC membrane was stretched over a steel frame to create a new shaded space in the heart of the schoolyard. The simple, geometric form of the structure blends well with the surrounding school buildings while significantly improving the comfort of outdoor use during sunny days.
The 25 m² canopy, designed and built according to Abastran’s construction and execution plans, is another step in the development of our proprietary modular canopy systems.

The structure uses a PVC membrane stretched over a steel supporting frame.
The canopy provides a shaded area in the school courtyard, improving outdoor comfort on hot days.
It features a simple, geometric form that integrates seamlessly into the school’s architecture without dominating the space.
The total membrane surface area is 25 m².
The PVC membrane only requires occasional cleaning to maintain its visual appeal and durability.
The main challenge was to match the scale and form of the canopy to the existing courtyard while ensuring functionality and safety for use by children.
