OUTSIDE PHOENIX, AMONGST A ROCKY SLOPE IN THE ARIZONA DESERT, LIES A RESIDENCE THAT DEFIES LOCAL CONVENTION. TENNEN STUDIO WAS COMMISSIONED TO BUILD THIS RESIDENCE IN EFFORT TO GO AGAINST THE GRAIN WHILE DELIVERING UNRIVALED BEAUTY AND ELEGANCE. THIS 10,500 SQUARE-FOOT HOME PROMINENTLY FEATURES HORIZONTALS, FROM THE ROOFLINES TO THE WINDOWS TO THE BLOCKS OF LIMESTONE THROUGHOUT THE INTERIOR. BECAUSE OF THIS, MDT'S CANTILEVERED UMBRELLAS WERE SOUGHT OUT TO PROVIDE SUNSHADE FOR ONE OF THE OUTSIDE SITTING AREAS.

For the Tennen Studio, sun protection without an inconvenient mast is needed, so that the seating arrangement can be modified without limitations. MDT offers the perfect solution, without compromising the appearance of the seating area. The rotatable mast has an oval profile for maximum stability and to accommodate for the wiring of the umbrella. The cantilever umbrella can be opened and closed easily with the hand crank.
