ᐅ Large Window Front – Privacy and Sun Protection

Hello,

At my house, which is currently under construction, there is a large window section on one side measuring approximately 3.30 meters (11 feet) wide and 5.50 meters (18 feet) high (according to the plans, see photo).

According to the thermal insulation requirements, some type of sun protection or privacy screen must be installed here as well. On the inside, there is no ceiling because it is a large gallery area. Do you have any suggestions on what kind of sun protection could be installed there? Roller shutters would be too large for the total area, a venetian blind would be too unstable and also too large in area? Zip screens could develop mold in damp conditions? I already thank you in advance.

Best regards

Interior sun protection... forget it. It’s useless.

Textile screens... no personal experience. Just what I see and hear, mostly from commercial buildings. However, the experience is too recent to comment on mold issues. I do see and hear about numerous screens that either develop wrinkles right after installation or shortly thereafter. Whether this is due to poor quality, improper installation, or simply normal because the fabric "moves," I have no idea.

Exactly! We had textile screens in our office, and they were professional grade. It was a complete failure—worn out eventually and never as individually adjustable inside as Venetian blinds.

So, we have a 7.70 m (25.3 ft) glass facade in the living room and have Venetian blinds.
