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.

Pah, have a rectangular one with a pretty picture on it then. A
triangular one shields virtually nothing so's utterly pointless. You
wouldn't buy a pretty car that doesn't start.


16ft*3 isn't small is it? Depending on angles, that could create a large
shadow area.

With three very narrow parts.

With angles and distance those 'narrow shadows' could be on the nextdoor
property.
