Portfolio > Qatar Gas Exhibition Canopy


Architen Landrell designed, manufactured and installed a free-standing tensile sail canopy for the Qatargas 2 inauguration at Ras Laffan, Qatar, in April 2009. The printed PVC polyester sail covered over 272m² of exhibition space.
After our successful appointment to work on the inflatable dome at the QatarGas Inaugural exhibition, client WRG Creative Communication Ltd. approached Architen Landrell to design, manufacture and install a free-standing canopy.
The structure was designed to cover an exhibit highlighting the new Qatar Gas Pipeline and was erected as a satellite exhibit to the larger Qatargas 2 inaugural events at Ras Laffan, Qatar, on 6 April 2009. The PVC coated polyester fabric forms a tensile sail covering over 272sqm of exhibition space and is printed with the QatarGas logo to reaffirm the company branding.
Integrated LED lighting meant the client got more than just a canopy: at night the lighting panels transformed the exhibit with a wash of colour.
Due to the temporary nature of the structure and the tight regulations regarding ground works on site, pouring concrete foundations was not an option. To attain a suitable alternative, Architen Landrell employed the Platipus Earth anchor system, which we installed ourselves on-site and proved an effective solution.
The event was an undoubted success and the client and Architen Landrell were pleased with the stunning finished result.
