At Rosseni we transform the facades of your buildings into architectural masterpieces.
Solar shading is a crucial element in the architectural design phase, as it significantly affects the energy efficiency and comfort of interior environments. Among the various shading solutions available, knee-up and folding sunshades stand out for their effectiveness in managing natural light and solar heat, ensuring optimal control of lighting and temperatures.
Knee screens are based on a system of panels that tilt horizontally, reminiscent of the movement of a bending knee. This particular structure allows for dynamic adjustment of the screening angle, allowing you to precisely modulate the amount of sunlight you want to let into your space. This offers numerous advantages.
Unlike other types of screening, such as fixed ones, knee screens offer greater versatility. In particular:
Energy efficiency
They reduce the need for internal air conditioning thanks to the control of solar heat, especially in the warmer seasons.
Energy efficiency
Their dynamic appearance can be integrated into both modern and traditional buildings, without compromising the overall aesthetics.
Durability and maintenance
Made of resistant materials, this type of screening requires less maintenance than more complex or mobile solutions, while still maintaining their effectiveness over time.
Knee-shaped screens are widely used in various contexts, adapting perfectly to both residential and commercial projects:
Private residences
They allow you to manage natural lighting inside homes. One of our latest projects took us to Locarno, Switzerland, where we installed our knee-shaped and folding sunshades on the external facades of a residential building, surrounded by greenery.
Public and commercial buildings
In these contexts, the use of knee-shaped screens allows you to optimize energy management, reducing operating costs and ensuring comfortable environments for those who use them.
Hospitals and institutional facilities
In classrooms and work spaces, these screens offer effective solar protection, creating an ideal atmosphere for studying and working, without excessive exposure to direct light.
