Make connections at home with Shadowspec Serenity™

Relaxing and reconnecting is the perfect antidote to the pressures of the world around us, and fostering connection through shade is one way we can find our own luxury at home. 

At Shadowspec, we believe in the value of space making; that is, taking a people-centered, design approach to our living spaces, as a way to strengthen family connections at home. Finding ways to make the most of their living areas of our customers seek when they come to our shade specialists for advice. Customers like Mike from Houston Texas, decided to purchase a Shadowspec Serenity™ Rotating Cantilever Umbrella for his patio area. Combined with a free-standing base with optional castor wheels installation, it allowed him to maximise shade across two areas of his yard.

“We love to spend time outside. It's a great time to get together with family and friends. Have a good conversation. Play some yard games. Play with the dogs. There are so many beautiful days in Texas before we had this umbrella. Sometimes this area just got too hot. being in the direct sunlight. And so, we weren't able to enjoy the space.”

Mike and his family can follow the sun throughout the day to ensure they’re safe and comfortable in the Texan sun. 

“We can sit out here at any time of the day and enjoy the space. We don't have a lot of space to work with, so it was important that we really made the most of the space that we had. And the Shadowspec umbrella did exactly that.”

They find that the cantilever design is perfectly suited to activities across both patio areas, enabling Mike and his family to connect while enjoying dinner, entertaining guests or engaging in other garden activities. As the mast of the umbrella offset, there are no masts or poles in the way, and the conversation can continue to flow with the outdoor furniture.

"I really like all of the different mounting options that Shadowspec offered. In fact, originally, I was going to go with a base mount. but my wife, one of the flexibilities of the mobile base. And I'm glad she made that suggestion because we enjoyed the ability to move the umbrella around, so easily"

“The Shadowspec Serenity freed up the space so that we didn't have center pole in the middle. we've tried smaller center pole umbrellas before, and we found that it always seemed like that center pole was in the way. And no matter where we moved the umbrella, the pole was in the way, or it wasn't providing the shade in the space that we wanted it to provide shade in.”

“I would highly recommend the shadow spec umbrella for anyone considering a good, sturdy quality umbrella for their outdoor space. I spent a lot of time looking for the right umbrella. My advice, if you're looking for an umbrella, is to stop searching. I think you found one.”
