Solar control sunscreens

POLO Architects had a specific idea in mind for this project, which they wanted to create without making any compromises. It needed to be an ‘open house’, with plenty of glass and welcoming façades. But plenty of glass inevitably means plenty of sun. In order to preserve the open nature of the design, the sunscreens could not detract from it. Our solar control woven metals were perfect for the job and would not impede the view.

Our client, Lenco, was familiar with our product, albeit only in the form of screens. This foldable system was new for them and for us. In order to do maximum justice to the undulating pattern, the rails for the mesh were positioned at an angle to the façade.
