The Metropol Parasol was never conceived as a flat plane. Jürgen Mayer H. designed the canopy to undulate — six parasol forms rising and falling at different heights above the plaza, their surfaces curving simultaneously in multiple directions, the overall profile shifting depending on where you stand below. This frame catches that ambition in section: two curved bands of the structure cutting across the deep Seville blue, a strip of sky opened between them, the scalloped module edges tracing their wave-form at both levels. On the right, metal fixings hold the wooden members at their junctions — a reminder that the organic silhouette is the product of precise, repeated engineering. The curve looks inevitable. It wasn't.
