Clearly designed to shield people from sun and rain.* But isn't
rectangular more sensible?* Triangles have those narrow corners in
three places where they shield virtually nothing.


Rectangular awnings are stodgy and boring.* Triangular awnings are
more to the taste of design professionals.

You're not wrong about their utility.


Why would you say a triangle looks better than a rectangle?* They're
just two different shapes.


How do you know what a triangle is?

Play School had a round, a square and an arched window?
