About this asset

This multicolour fabric parasol is a Revit family featuring a simple, classic design suitable for various outdoor renderings. This parasol consists of a central timber pole supporting a vibrant, multi-segmented fabric canopy. The canopy features alternating panels of yellow, white, green, blue, orange, and red, creating a distinct visual presence. The structure is finished with a simple finial at the apex. The design is straightforward and functional, capturing the classic look of a standard garden or patio shade. It provides a lightweight, clean geometry that is easily placed within site plans or terrace layouts to add colour and context to outdoor architectural visualisations.

The download is a 174 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

As a standard Revit family, this parasol is designed for easy integration into project files. Users can load it into their site plan or exterior scene, placing it as a freestanding element. Because it is a simple geometry, it is lightweight and will not significantly impact model performance. For high-quality renderings, users can apply custom materials to the canopy panels to adjust the fabric texture, or adjust the height of the pole if the family parameters allow for vertical scaling.

Ideal for residential gardens, hospitality terrace designs, and public park projects, this parasol adds a layer of realism to exterior scenes. It is particularly useful during the concept and design development stages when establishing the character of outdoor living spaces. Architects and landscape designers would search for this as a garden parasol, patio shade, or outdoor furniture element to populate cafe areas, pool decks, or private backyards, ensuring the scene feels lived-in and ready for summer use.
