The quest for the perfect blind
Looking for their pied-à-terre, future buyers quickly fall under the spell of this contemporary house acquired in 2020. Built on one level in 2009, it extends outside onto a terrace with swimming pool and pergola. The abundance of large bay windows which punctuate the facade blurs the boundary between interior and exterior while letting in light.
In this region where summer temperatures can quickly exceed 30°, the former owner had chosen adjustable sunshades to ensure summer comfort inside the villa. Unfortunately, between bad weather and UV rays, the latter show signs of aging and are no longer as effective. It then becomes urgent for the couple to change them.
With such a house flooded with sunlight thanks to its XXL openings, he is looking for a solution that combines design and thermal comfort instead of simply replacing the BSO or opting for classic shutters which denote the style of the villa. This is how they discovered the Screenamax store.
Undeniable aesthetic and functional advantages
With large bay windows, choosing the appropriate blind could seem complex, but the ZIP screen perfectly met the expectations of the new owners who wanted solar protection that could be achieved in large widths. With its patented system which eliminates any risk of bending of the axis, the Screenamax frees itself from these dimensional constraints.
Another significant advantage for the south-facing villa is its ultra-compact trunk (105 mm with a 78 mm steel axle) which optimizes daylight and its deep black canvas filtering up to 97% of solar rays. This allows you to benefit from sufficient light inside while maintaining a panoramic view of the outside and preserving the privacy of the occupants.
Three ZIP screens with a 105mm trunk were installed, each measuring 5,75m wide by 2,62m high. Equipped with a Somfy motor, they can be opened/closed easily and at the desired height!
« To try it is to adopt it ! Screenamax blinds really provide optimal light management and controlled interior temperature, and even pleasant freshness, without sacrificing natural light. », confide the spouses with enthusiasm.
The last determining factor which confirmed their decision, the contemporary aesthetic of screen blinds. “ With their smooth and refined design, they integrate harmoniously into the contemporary architecture of the house. Once reassembled, they blend into the decor without obstructing the view and when they are deployed, the light generously invites into the room, without the slightest overheating » underlines the husband.
Transformed thanks to the installation of Screenamax blinds, the Gironde home of the new happy owners now benefits from a total protective screen. A real winning choice for this exceptional house!
