Since opening in Wynyard’s Quarter towards the end of 2018, the Good Luck Coconut has offered a relaxed dining and bar experience with a sharing style menu focused on Pacific and Asian ingredients, with a tropical tiki bar at hand.
Approach the venue and you’ll be greeted by tropical trees, tiki huts and modern seating. Step inside and you’ll find the interior décor has been cleverly designed to create a tropical oasis, with woven materials, palm trees and iconic Pacific and Asian references.
The Good Luck Coconut logo features a bright turquoise background, evoking imagery of a blue lagoon. Complementing this theme, Shade7’s large Tempest commercial outdoor umbrellas were adopted into the fitting out of the restaurant, creating three large lagoon like surfaces with their matching turquoise canopies. The attractive umbrellas easily attract attention as they tie in with their logo, giving a cohesive brand image.
The outdoor umbrellas not only cover diners from shade and rain, but also create a sense of privacy and intimacy, while creating an eye-catching feature and branding billboard for passers by.
Whilst aesthetics were extremely important Good Luck Coconut, the credibility and strength of the umbrellas were also crucial considering their harbourside environment.
Shade7’s mighty telescopic Tempest commercial outdoor umbrella has been built for strength and durability. Constructed with a marine grade aluminium frame and stainless steel components and fixings, the heavy-duty umbrella features a 94mm diameter centre mast has internal reinforcing channels for additional strength. With a few sizes available, the Tempest has been engineered to withstand wind speeds of 80-100km/h while open. These features make this umbrella ultra strong and ideal for testing commercial and coastal environments. The Tempest umbrella is also available with built-in LED lighting, to offer a unique outdoor lighting feature.
The Good Luck Coconut’s three Tempest commercial umbrellas are an ideal non-permanent solution for creating a cohesive outdoor space. Naturally the umbrellas continue to reinforce the tropical atmosphere of the restaurant, giving a tropical resort like feel that is synonymous with outdoor umbrellas.
