An object for the house
We wanted a square of shade the family could pitch by water
What the piece is made of, how it takes its place, how to keep it honest, and how it reaches you. Meaning needs a body.
I
The weave in the piece.
II
How it takes its place.
III
How to keep it honest.
Air dry after rain. Do not store wet. Keep fire away from the cloth.

How it reaches you.
Items may arrive in multiple parcels
Pieces already in the UAE may be collected together and leave as one parcel. International partner stock may still travel as separate parcels and arrive on different days.
The picnic had no roof. We wanted a square of shade you could pitch by water — three sides that drop, fire kept outside the cloth.
An umbrella tent that opens into a square, 3.6 or 4.2 metres, three covers, mesh that lets the air through. Folds to about 90 × 28 × 28 cm.
Hold.
On the shade rail. We celebrate a tent the picnic can keep. Meaning is sitting in the square, not buying a camp speech.
Pitch the shade. Cook outside it.
