A Design Born from the Deep

Over a decade ago, while scuba diving 20 metres beneath the ocean's surface, designer Kris Van Puyvelde was mesmerised by the intricate beauty of the marine life around him. As he watched a pipe anemone emerge from its slender tube and sway with the current, inspiration struck for an unexpected parasol design.

Early prototypes failed, and the idea was shelved — until 2023, when Kris rediscovered the original drawings. With a designer's precision and a diver's patience, he refined the concept into its final form. The result is Super solar milan umbrella — a name born from An (Greek for "against") and Amon (the Egyptian sun god), signifying both sun protection and its oceanic muse: the tube-dwelling anemone.

The Innovation

Super solar milan umbrella inverts the typical parasol — blossoming open upwards from within its stem. Opening from the inside out and the top down, Super solar milan umbrella cleverly conceals its complexity. Everything — from the canopy to the mechanics — is hidden within its sleek vertical column. At the turn of a handle, the parasol seamlessly unfolds with a theatrical reveal, while the inner workings remain discreetly hidden.

What Sets Super solar milan umbrella Apart

Premium Materials & Craftsmanship

As you would expect from Royal Botania, the Super solar milan umbrella is built with an eye for detail and durability. Above the canopy sits the distinctive "Frisbee cap" — a playful design element that protects against dirt and water while serving as a subtle nod to Royal Botania's innovative character.

Every component is engineered to withstand the elements while maintaining the sleek, minimalist aesthetic that defines the Super solar milan umbrella experience.
