Description:

KE shading systems are widely appreciated for luxury installations worldwide. Specifically, KE boasts a longstanding experience in an exclusive area such as the French Riviera, and this is the case for this magnificent private villa in Cap d'Antibes, a few kilometres from Nice and Cannes.

The estate owner, who asked to create a more enjoyable outdoor space, combining practicality and design, was initially impressed by the essential design of Qubica Flat cassette awning, in the matt white version.

Qubica sun awning, born from an intuition of ​​Italian architect Robby Cantarutti, perfectly fits to the villa minimal architecture it adjusts to the facade, with a minimal impact, looking compact and elegant even when closed.

Flat Qubica has been installed in the living area to provide maximum coverage in warmer hours and protect the outdoor relax area, decorated in white and pearl grey tones.

In this area two Kolibrie shading systems in Dacron fabric were added as well: the elegance and nautical finishes of this sail, which is a real object of design with a great eye impact, immediately responded to the client needs. The two shading sails were placed in the poolside area.

The third product chosen is Kedry Plus, the bioclimatic pergola, ideal for creating an area dedicated to the open kitchen, which had to be separated from the pool area and protected to create a functional cooking zone.

Vertika rollers with Soltis 92 woven provide additional protection for kitchen equipment during winter months.

During sunset hours, Vertika rollers filter the sunrays to ensure total protection for those who are cooking, blocking out any annoying reflections.

Once again, KE stands out as a complete and integrated sun shading solutions supplier: a wide range of products that can adapt to more diverse situations, to satisfy every need and to add prestige to unique residential environments, enhancing any outdoor space.
