**Why it was chosen:** The terrace is used as an outdoor seating and dining area directly off the living space, requiring shade that could be extended or retracted as needed through the day. A motorised cassette awning suits this setup, closing away completely when not in use and automatically retracting in high wind thanks to the paired wind sensor. The awning spans 5 x 3.5 m, covering the full terrace below.

This terrace in Arabian Ranches, Dubai sits behind a set of bi-fold doors, opening onto an outdoor seating area used throughout the day. A cassette awning was installed along the upper wall, extending out over the full width of the terrace to provide shade for the space below.

The awning fabric is fully retractable, allowing the terrace to be shaded when needed and the awning to be closed flush against the wall when not in use, keeping the façade clean. A Somfy Eolis 3D IO wind sensor was fitted alongside the motorised system, automatically retracting the awning in windy conditions to protect the fabric and frame.

Finished in anthracite with a sand-toned canopy, the awning complements the villa's exterior while giving year-round use of the terrace, whether open for shade or closed back to the wall.
