Elegant tulip shades above the rooftops of New York
The Aman Hotel in New York embodies elegance in perfection. Those who dine and stay here get a good insight into the lifestyle of American high society. Luxurious. Generous. Outstanding and excellent: here at the AMAN, the elite is at home. The Aman Hotel is a new opening in the city in 2022 and is located very close to Central Park.
The hotel commissioned three tulip umbrellas from MDT-tex to decorate the roof terrace. These umbrellas were individually designed and constructed according to the requirements. With a reinforcement on the mast and frame, these umbrellas are stable and can withstand the sometimes quite strong winds on the roof terrace. The membrane the hotel chose is our favourite at MDT-tex: PTFE is a material made of coated Teflon, which is extremely resistant to heat and weather. To ensure that the membrane is protected when closed, it has been fitted with a lining that completely closes the arms of the screen.
With thirty years of experience in membrane architecture, MDT-tex has an enormous vertical range of manufacture in the areas of membrane, steel, wood and aluminium. MDT-tex is your partner especially for large-scale textile projects. We design with a love of detail and optics and manufacture customised solutions for individual projects.
