In the arid Southwest, a little shade can go a long way toward transforming a residential backyard from a scorching desert to a shady oasis. One Tucson, Ariz., couple decided to shade their yard in style by installing a custom cantilevered shade disc over their new patio. Conrad Masterson, Owner of Shade Industries of Phoenix, Ariz., took on this unique project with enthusiasm. “The customers envisioned a round patio area for their remodeled backyard, and they wanted the area to be wellshaded,” Masterson says. “We went through some different options like shade sails, but no conventional shade options were round, and they wanted something more unique. We started talking about customized solutions, and the idea of The Discus came from that.”
