PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

A Design-Build Project by GuildWorks: As part of the ambitious Neon Line District urban infill redevelopment in Downtown Reno, the Glow Plaza Festival Grounds features an iconic 18,000 sqft colorful shade sail system covering both stage and audience areas. Inspired by the playful Neon Line District branding, the vibrant shade array dramatically reduces heat island effect while creating a visually striking identity for the space. The structure utilizes HDPE-knitted shade cloth that remains in place throughout the summer season and is removed for winter, making it an adaptable solution for the venue's seasonal needs. GuildWorks delivers fully custom tensile architecture through a comprehensive design-build approach. Our world-class team transforms outdoor spaces into more accessible, comfortable environments that extend usability year-round. We partner with landscape architects from concept through installation to create distinctive fabric structures tailored to each project's unique character and requirements. This collaborative approach ensures seamless integration with landscape designs while addressing critical challenges like heat island effects and weather protection. For landscape architects seeking truly custom fabric solutions, GuildWorks offers unparalleled expertise in translating design vision into buildable, sustainable reality. GuildWorks builds unique tension fabric structures, turning shade sails into iconic structures.
