Architectural screening solutions

Providing privacy while improving summer thermal comfort requires carefully designed architectural solutions .
Determining the performance of architectural privacy and shading solutions in terms of thermal and visual comfort requires an in-depth study of each construction or renovation project.

Architectural screening systems : an effective energy solution for an intimate and comfortable indoor climate.

Do you want to preserve privacy, filter natural light, or control daylight inside a building in a passive, aesthetic, and economical way ? Opt for external architectural screening systems : fixed shutters (claustra type) or sliding shutters.

As an integral part of the structure, privacypanels are increasingly important elements in the construction or energy renovation of buildings as they contribute to the management of natural light and shading. TELLIER BRISE-SOLEIL's sunshadeblackout systems also perform multiple functions related to the comfort and well-being of users in interior spaces.

In terms of architectural screening , panel devices and their configurations are numerous: fixed or sliding systems, solid or perforated infills, material types (aluminum, wood, composite...), and custom dimensions. Depending on the panel's characteristics (solid, privacy screen, sunshade...), the screening of openings (windows, bays...), including the largest ones, has different functions. They can: limit heat gain or natural light in summer, retain building heat at night in winter, protect privacy by blacking out the room's interior while letting in daylight, or even reinforce security through specific devices.

External screeningsolutions, against the facade or on balcony edges, also play an aesthetic role. Through their design and color (similar or not to the openings), privacypanels give rhythm to facades and provide a modern appearance to the building. They make the architectural project unique and distinctive by creating a distinctive architectural identity.

Finally, when a building is air-conditioned, external architectural screeningreduce or even eliminate HVAC cooling loads . Thus, installing a shadingpanel is beneficial in improving the summer comfort of occupants and in reducing or eliminating energy consumption related to the active cooling of buildings. Fixed or sliding shutters also ensure ventilation between between the shutter and the building envelope , which further lowers the temperature in summer.
