Task

Solinear were appointed by Savoy and they worked alongside architect, Woods Hardwick. The Brief was to develop an attractive façade arrangement of horizontal Medera fins that not only provide sufficient solar coverage at peak summer periods but also allow sufficient light passage into the rooms during the cooler months.

Action

Solinear used their Medera DR system to provide a floating effect of the Medera timber solar shading fins along the sloping roof edge, removing the need for unsightly brackets.
