The Sunbreaks have been used for centuries to protect openings or parts of buildings to limit the damage of sun rays, and to create light effect, and to limit the view from outside of a building. All these needs are particularly important in the UAE country being connected to the weather and to the Arabic Culture.

The use of Sunbreaks mounted on metal frames allows the construction of curtain walls. The frames can be made of steel or painted to the desired colour.

Sunbreaks help to keep your home fresh by reflecting the sun rays

During the 1930s, Le Corbusier was working largely in hot countries, and the invention of the brise-soleil seemed to be the answer to problems of heat gain. 

 

‘I take this opportunity on behalf of young people here to thank you for your latest gift to architecture: the brise-soleil, a splendid element, the key to infinite combinations. Now architecture is ready to take its place in life. You have given it a skeleton (independent structure), its vital organs (the communal services of a building), a fresh shining skin (the piloti). And now you have given it magnificent clothes, adaptable to all climates! You must be a little proud!’

Sunbreaks give to the building a second skin not only decorative but also Green increasing the energy efficiency and create a sustainable construction.

 

 

The possibility to custom made the design of the element gives infinity possibilities to create sculptural Architecture which become artwork.
