Tailor-made aesthetics: integrating awnings into the architecture

In the Danish town of Horsens, a catering business was equipped with a tailor-made shading solution that perfectly accentuates the unique location right on the waterfront. Two markilux pergola classic systems were installed to provide protection and comfort.

One of the pergola systems is located directly in front of the restaurant. Its frame and fabric colors were chosen to match the style of the building so that it blends harmoniously into the surroundings. From this sheltered area, guests can enjoy an undisturbed view of the water.

A second system was installed on the roof terrace. This pergola contains an additional markilux 776 vertical roller blind, which offers flexible protection from the wind if required. The vertical roller blind is equipped with integrated windows so as not to obstruct the spectacular view. This means that the view of the water is maintained even when the awning is extended.

These installations show how functionality and design can be perfectly combined to enhance a restaurant's outdoor area and offer guests the best possible experience.

Added value and advantages of the sun shading solution

Solar protection and architecture in harmony

Solar protection is not just a functional element, it should also blend in with the overall look of the architecture. This was precisely what was crucial for the owner when choosing the awning: it had to blend seamlessly with the design of the building. The fabric color, frame color and the matching additional equipment were chosen to underline the aesthetics of the building. In this way, the solar protection harmonizes with the architecture.

Unobstructed view of the harbor

The vertical awning on the roof terrace is fitted with special panoramic windows. When the vertical solar protection is extended, the view outside is maintained while guests are protected from the wind and sun. This makes the outdoor area a sheltered place at any time of day, maintaining a connection to the surroundings.

Pergolas for large-area solar protection

Our pergola systems are the ideal solution when large areas need to be effectively shaded. They combine the stability of a fixed construction with the flexibility of an awning. The robust posts and guide tracks ensure high wind stability, while the fabric cover can be quickly and easily retracted or extended as required. The pergolas therefore not only offer reliable protection from the sun and rain, but also an elegant extension of the outdoor area.

Comfortable protection in light rain and wind

Our pergolas not only offer optimal solar protection, but also allow you to enjoy your outdoor area carefree in changeable weather. Thanks to their robust construction with sturdy posts and guide tracks, they offer reliable protection in light rain and wind. This makes the awning a flexible weather protection that significantly extends the use of the patio and makes spending time outdoors even more comfortable.
