Shade in the garden or terrace

Shading in the garden or terrace is a very important case that concerns a lot of people, especially in the summer. The truth is that we are rightly so concerned as it can change our daily lives and create new habits more enjoyable and creative.  A shade in the garden or terrace is a necessary condition for us to be able to live outside in the summer. But what is the right solution for our space? What is the orientation of our building and when do we use this space?

The first thing to think about when we decide to shade our space is the hours we visit it and its orientation. A visit from our architect will help you find the right way to shade your space. Each space is unique and one needs to adapt to its particularities in order to have a beautiful result. For example, many times we come across existing constructions mainly decorative that offer no shade. So very often we intervene in such a way that we do not have to spoil it but also can offer the desired shading during the day. Other times we find cases where the space is free and able to harmonize with many designs. For example, in a garden, a holistic approach is often required that includes another type of shading in a dining room and another type in the barbecue area. It is therefore certainly necessary to study and coordinate several workshops in order to achieve the desired result. 

On some terraces, it is also clear the choice of an awning. As far as the plans are, they're really inexhaustible. Different colors in awnings give many different possibilities and great flexibility. There are cassette-like awnings that really "disappear" when they close, while others with arms are used many times throughout the year. 

Shade in space is not always easy as there is a great need for flexibility. In these cases, we also use umbrellas like Sombrano that follow the sun and its time with great ease. They have the ability to change height and angle but also to move on wheels. In other cases when shade is required on a smaller balcony we use the umbrellas Alu Twist and Alu Smart which although small are extremely flexible and change angles with a very simple maneuver. On the contrary, especially in areas with a lot of air, umbrellas like Fortino are more suitable than the rest. Especially, if they can be screwed to the ground they offer greater air resistance and are a necessary condition for a hotel.

Shade in Greece is a prerequisite for every house and hotel. The choice we make, however, must be designed by an architect-engineer in order to offer the maximum possible. Do not hesitate to ask us if we can visit your place to give the best possible solutions!
