This designer sunshade is manufactured with a galvanized steel base and a thermo-lacquered stainless-steel pole in a wide range of colours. The slats are strips of phenolic board that unfold according to how much light and shade is required. “It is more than a decorative sunshade, it creates an array of colours, lights and shades that transform the outdoor space into an idyllic place that is full of life,” they point out.
The greatest challenge, they explain, was to find the ideal material for the slats, since it had to be sufficiently resistant to be used outdoors, as well as not bending excessively or being too rigid.
Another of the key pieces was the design of the central piece of each slat. Its design enables the joining, opening and closing of the slats thanks to a blocking system that makes sure that when one is moved the rest follow behind.
