Description

Functionally, an abri provides protection from weather conditions such as rain, wind or sun. This shelter enhances comfort by reducing environmental stress. It serves as a temporary refuge for individuals who need a brief pause or waiting place. The structure operates through minimal design that maximizes utility. It facilitates short‑term occupancy without requiring full enclosure. Through this functional behavior, an abri supports transitional moments in public or outdoor spaces.
