The Transferable Marquee provides protection from the elements for students waiting for their parents to pick them up after school. 

Why wait for the carpool line far away under the protection of a building when you can wait underneath a canopy that is closer to the street? The logic in the Front-Lawn Canopy is that if students are closer to the street, they will not have to run one-hundred meters across the lawn. The Front-Lawn Canopy also limits the number of time students spends out in the harsh Louisiana elements.

The project's first iteration was named the Fruit-Stand Model because it was a basic rectangle shape. The first model was created so that the angle of the front lawn could be looked at more carefully. The slope of the front lawn changes as you move from one side another, making it difficult to place a rectangular structure on the ground surface.  Because this model was not structurally sound, the overall design of the Campus Canopy was revisited. 

The A-frame model proved to be much more stable.  Because the triangle provides more stability than any other structure, it does not need to be permanently cemented into the ground. The benefits of having a portable structure are that we can move it to where it is needed. One benefit to having a temporary structure is that when there is bad weather it is easily moved to a safer location. One other reason a temporary structure is good to have is that when there is a nice day you don't necessarily have to have it up. The arms are movable which allows for a customizable saddle structure, the user would just change the position(s) of the arms to the desired angle. The arms were intended to be moved so it was the users preference adding to the interaction with our project.
