Description
The designer cantilever parasol by Semprin
JOINT challenges the conventions of outdoor design, elevating the cantilever parasol to a true kinetic sculpture. Designed by architect Roberto Semprini, this Poggesi model from the ALAE collection is distinguished by an evolved engineering that allows the structure to open and close without removing the furniture beneath. This feature, combined with a design that represents the supreme synthesis of contemporary aesthetics and cantilevered technology, makes JOINT the ideal offset parasol for those seeking maximum functionality with minimal visual footprint.
The technological innovation of the cantilever parasol
The JOINT model draws its inspiration from the mechanical precision of high-end gymnastic equipment. This influence translates into an outdoor parasol that is not merely a shelter, but a manifesto of mechanical bespoke craft applied to outdoor living. The cantilevered design allows the space to be dominated without occupying its heart, delivering dynamic sun protection with 360° rotation to follow the natural movement of light. Every detail, from the purity of the aluminium profiles to the fluidity of the mechanisms, is conceived to transform sun shading into an iconic furnishing element capable of defining the identity of an entire architectural project.
Ideal settings
Thanks to its strong aesthetic impact and ability to cover large surfaces without central obstructions, JOINT is the solution of choice for those seeking professional parasols for the most exclusive settings:
- Hotel and luxury resort terraces seeking a distinctive architectural statement.
- Penthouse terraces and contemporary roof gardens, where the view must remain unobstructed and design takes centre stage.
- Contract projects and lounge areas, where the ability to open and close without removing furniture becomes a fundamental operational advantage.
