Desert Light Structures, LLC designs custom projects involving the design, analysis, manufacture, and installation of fabric membrane structures in the Colorado Plateau area.

Double curved fiberglass architectural fabrics offer structural integrity for wind and snow loads, 35 year durability, and beautiful soft light.

Patent pending design

Desert Light Structures utilizes specialized CAD packages which offer graphically interfaced design and analysis for tension fabric structures that produce workable patterns which can then be used for manufacture.

Additional CAD tools are used to offer professional design services to clients. A 3d model can be created of the actual site, and a site analysis mapping available solar radiation can be merged with shading representational tools culminating in final CAD models which can predict accurately aesthetic and economic performance of designs.
