Hello,
We bought a house with a 6x4 m (20x13 ft) west-facing terrace about a year ago. Currently, we use an offset patio umbrella for shade, but we are not satisfied. There is no natural shade on the property at the moment, and it is mostly windy.
With two small children, we would like better shading for the terrace. We also enjoy spending time outside in the afternoon.
What would you recommend for a 6x4 m (20x13 ft) west-facing terrace that can also handle some wind?
Best regards,
AS8

I therefore consider such a blanket statement to be incorrect.You don’t simply enclose yourself with a barrier without planning it carefully, especially when considering long-distance sightlines. Public terraces and facilities are designed very differently because they serve a large number of people. In those cases, a costly installation makes sense, which you contribute to by your order. These situations should not be lumped together.
