As the Passivhaus Centre of Excellence, Home By Milestone places building performance, energy efficiency and comfort at the heart of the conversation.
Why exterior shading belongs in the conversation.
The way a home manages sunlight matters. Large windows and open-plan spaces can bring wonderful natural light, but they also need thoughtful consideration of heat, glare and privacy.
Exterior shading helps manage sunlight before it reaches the glazing. Planned alongside the architecture, it can support a more comfortable indoor environment while complementing the appearance of your home.
Manage solar heat
Help limit unwanted solar gain during warmer weather, with shading selected around your glazing, orientation and needs.
Make daylight more comfortable
Reduce distracting glare and create spaces that are more comfortable for working, relaxing and everyday living.
Design it in from the start
Consider shading early so that fixings, controls and the overall finish work with the wider building design.
