HAMP is planning to put up a trellis on its sidewalk. I suggested that we use lighter, and less frequent (more spacing in between box members to make this lighter. Use instead climbers and vines to create the shade effect.
Another is the arch trellis which was featured in a Japanese theme park. A series of arch trellises like these with spaces in between, creating a tunnel effect between buildings or other areas of the park. But the version I saw was narrow - 1.5 meter x 2.5 meters high.
What could be done:
1. use of wire mesh alone
2. use of rebars welded like the one below
3. bent GI (say 1.5 and 2 inches) bent with wire mesh
The basic frame - light and cheap
We can use bougainvilla or other colorful vines to accentuate the arches.
