Zone B features 5 Leva LS54 umbrella aligned in a semi-circle, installed over a set of amphitheatre-style steps. The three columns (two double booms and a single boom for the centre canopy) are located on the top level of the steps, with the canopies creating a sun and weather protected space over the steps.
