2-Cell Elbow Shade (17x43)

2-Cell Elbow Shade

Modular Bamboo Shade Structure Rental

Cell System Overview

• Cell count: 2 cells

• Configuration: 1 × 2 with elbow

• Cell size: 17 ft × 17 ft

The 2-Cell Elbow Shade is a compact, highly adaptable shade structure built from two cells joined by an angled transition called an elbow. The elbow is created using a triangular half-cell with a 9 ft base, allowing the canopy to bend and redirect coverage while staying fully integrated within the cell system.

This structure is one of our most requested small-format builds. It works especially well for beer gardens, audience shade opposite a performance stage, walkway coverage, and secondary gathering zones where a straight run would not fit the site.
