Halo

© Design by Dirk Wynants for Extremis, 2026

A halo is the ring of light that sometimes appears around the sun or the moon. Pantagruel Halo brings that ring above the table: a circular, perforated canopy that filters the sun and asks nothing of you. Shade matters, but most umbrellas need someone to open them in the morning, close them at night and keep an eye on them in between. This one is simply there, with optional curtains for shade or privacy and dimmable lighting that carries the table well past sunset.

Shade that takes care of itself

While most shade systems require attention, Halo is simply there when you need it. Nothing to open. Nothing to close. The floating circular canopy creates comfortable shade above the iconic Pantagruel picnic table by Extremis, with optional curtains that slide around the full circumference and integrated lighting that extends the experience well beyond sunset.
