Outdoor dining is incredibly popular in Florida. With nice weather and great views, patrons love al fresco dining. We can design awnings to maximize the available outdoor dining space of any restaurant. Awnings should be designed in consideration of weather protection, sun and shading studies, and air flow. We have many great examples how we’ve maximized outdoor comfort at local restaurants. During our design process, we can simulate shade studies for various times of day and year!
