Lo Concèpte

A prepaus de Horizon Shade Sistèma de Parasolelh

Horizon Shade es un sistèma de parasolelh motorizat concebut per de grandas faciadas arquitecturalas. Lo sistèma utiliza un panèl unic sens junturas que s'espandís fins a 20 mètres, e servís las terrassas de vilàs e las dobèrturas comercialas. De perfils d'alumini extrudits amb precision, de tubs d'enrotlament de nauta resisténcia e de guidas lateralas amb sistèma de cremalhèra resistisson a la flexion e mantenon lo teissut estable sus tota la portada. Un mecanisme d'equilibratge automatic regula la tension e empacha la deformacion. Lo foncionament es possible per telecomanda, interruptor mural o sistèma domotic. L'ombratge es tractat coma una extension de la faciada.

Proprietats Unicas: Architectural Scale Shading Innovation,
A motorized shading system for large façades, featuring a seamless 20 m single panel.
Integrating ultra scale, full blackout, and intelligent control, it transforms shading from a product into an architectural system unifying light and spatial experience.

Engineering Meets Architecture
Self balancing, anti bending, modular, and guided resolving deformation across spans.
A structural interface linking façade, daylight, and outdoor space.
Dimensions e Embalatge: Designed for Large Scale Opening, Designed for large scale architectural openings, the system achieves a seamless span of up to 20,000 mm, meeting the shading demands of villas, terraces, and commercial facades.

High Performance System Configuration,
The system offers aluminum cassette options of 100 mm, 120 mm, and 140 mm, paired with 70mm or 85 mm reinforced coil tubes. Side guide rails measure approximately 57 mm in width andincorporate zipper guided stabilization. Optional LED lighting modules can be integrated. Thesystem ensures strong wind resistance and stable mechanical performance.
Etiquetas: Sunshade curtains, 20-meter single curtain, intelligent electric curtains, wind and rain sensing system
Tecnologia de Produccion: Precision Engineered Structure,
The system is constructed using precision-extruded aluminum profiles and high strength coil tubes, ensuring excellent resistance to bending and structural stability even at large spans, meeting architectural grade performance requirements.
Patented System Integration,
Core innovations include an automatic balancing system, combined rail down structure, zipper guide track, and hidden anti wrinkle shading mechanism. Outdoor grade fabrics with Grade 8 colorfastness are combined with modular aluminum cassette systems to enable efficient production, stable installation, and long term durability.
Desaffo de Dissènh: Engineering a 20 Meter, 600 kg System
The primary challenge was achieving structural stability and smooth operation at a 20 meter span,where the system weight reaches approximately 60o kg. At this scale, deformation, uneven tension,and instability become critical risks.
The substantial weight also created significant installation challenges, requiring 5-6 workers tocoordinate precise alignment and assembly on-site, increasing both labor intensity and construction complexity.
Balancing Performance, Installation, and Design
To address these constraints, the design integrates a self-balancing system, reinforced roller tubes,and zipper-guided tracks to ensure structural reliability.
At the same time, a modular and integrated system logic was developed to improve installation efficiency and precision. The project ultimately achieves a balance between engineering performance, construction feasibility, and architectural expression.
Recèrca: Researching Ultra-Wide Shading Systems
This research focuses on addressing structural stability challenges in architectural-scale shading systems under large spans. The objective was to develop a system capable of stable operation.
across a 20-meter span.
From Testing to Architectural Application
Through structural analysis, prototyping, and mechanical testing, the performance of aluminum profiles, coil tubes, and guide systems was systematically evaluated. Results demonstrate strong wind resistance, structural stability, and smooth operation, offering a reliable and scalable shading solution for contemporary architecture.
Inspiracion: Designed for a 20 Meter Span,

Addressing instability and deformation at 20 meter scales, the system is conceived as an extension of the architectural facade.It transforms shading into a seamless architectural system, combining structural stability with minimal expression.

From Passive Curtain to Responsive System

Adapts to environmental changes, transforming shading into an active, energy-efficient system.
Durada del Projècte: This project will commence in Shanghai, China in January 2025 and will be completed in Shanghai, China in August 2025.
Flux Operacional: Effortless Smart Control
The system operates via a motorized mechanism and can be controlled through remote control, wall switches, or smart home systems, allowing users to easily adjust shading conditions.
Stable Movement Across 20 Meters
The fabric moves smoothly along the guide rails, with the zipper guided system ensuring stability across the full 20 meter span. The automatic balancing system continuously regulates tension, preventing distortion and ensuring precise and smooth operation, enabling flexible transitions between light and shade.
