One Thousand Suns is a dynamic sculptural shade canopy that establishes a lively collective focal point for downtown Sunnyvale and reflects the incredible diversity of Sunnyvale’s residents and visitors. By supporting the artwork with four clusters of slender columns, the artwork creates an open, shaded and inviting space for people to fluidly move through on a daily basis.
