THE REQUIREMENT
The north facing Penthouse required superior heat and glare control, without compromising the panoramic views. Also required a seamless solution for shading large spans of windows.
THE SOLUTION
Verosol’s solution delivers quality, performance and contemporary style, consistently reflecting the high-end, sustainable design of the building. Motorisation is an ideal solution for shading large spans of glass or inaccessible windows. Easily integrated into home automation and building management systems, it allows for the effortless operation of a large number of blinds via remote control. SilverScreen delivers ultimate glare control and unrivalled solar reflectance and insulation. The metal backing dramatically improves solar energy control, whilst the semi-transparent nature demonstrates excellent view through to maintain the spectacular outlooks of the apartment.
