Patio awning for a residential building in Andernach
For their straight-lined detached house in Andernach, the owners, Mr and Mrs Wandstrat, were looking for a sun protection awning that would form a design unit with the house and garden. The perfect solution was found in the Kubata from awning manufacturer Weinor: The cassette awning is not only technically sophisticated, its sleek design also blends in perfectly with the clean lines of the building.
After the Wandstrats had moved into their new building, it quickly became apparent that the south-facing aspect made it almost impossible to use the patio on sunny days. Worse still, the interior rooms were also heating up. A sun protection awning was needed! But it had to fit in with the clean lines of the house and not take a back seat to the aesthetics of the building. "A sunshade would only have covered an area that was far too small," explains the owner, "and a conventional awning was out of the question for us for style reasons - we wanted a sun protection awning that not only fitted our façade, but also matched it."
Quality meets design
With the Kubata cassette awning, an awning was found that met the homeowners' high design standards thanks to its cubic design. Hannah Wandstrat reports: "The clear shape and elegant lines immediately appealed to us." And her husband adds: "Another compelling argument was of course the high quality and the unusually long guarantee period of 7 years".
"I particularly liked the enormous choice of frame and fabric colours," reports the owner. "I was able to match the housing of the awning exactly to the anthracite colour of our window and door frames." And she was also impressed by the awning fabric: "The fresh turquoise gives our seating area made of tubular steel and wickerwork a modern touch - the cool colour is very soothing, especially in hot summers."
Independent design experts also attest to the outstanding look of the weinor Kubata: the linear patio awning was honoured with the coveted iF Design Award 2019 and named German Design Award Winner 2019.
Satisfied clients
Since the Kubata cassette awning was installed, the patio has become a second living room for the family. "We enjoy the pleasant shade," reports the owner. "And, of course, the remote control and the automatic wind function of the electric awning with motor also contribute greatly to the comfort." Another plus: if the Wandstrats also want to use their patio in the evening, the integrated LED lighting provides a pleasant light.
