Buitink technology manufactured and installed two mirrored entrance awnings for shopping centre Hoge Veld in The Hage on behalf of GDA International. The space shaped awnings are made of a steel construction, tensed fabric and a 3D aluminium frame around it.

The awning's fabric is chosen in a specific color and provided with print (text: ''Hoge Veld''). For the lighting and the sprinkler installation some holes are provided in the upper fabric. The outside part of the awning is provided with a rainwater discharge connected to a drainage. The shape seems simple but is quite complex due to the 3 D curved shape of the fabric to be followed by the aluminium and steel construction.
