Cornering the home shade
A
nyone who has spent time on a racing
sailboat (and New Zealanders are noted
for putting up challengers to the America's
Cup sailing competition, with four wins out of
five attempts) knows that a tightly furled sail
does not flap uncontrollably. A recent addition
to a private home in Queenstown provides
comfortable protection from sun and heat.
The shade sail for this residence borrows from
its aquatic siblings with a single rotating spar
that pulls the two opposite corners of the fabric
in on itself to reduce the fabric surface exposure.
Essentially, when responding to solar gain,
it changes from a fully extended four-corner
square of fabric into a tightly wrapped tube
perpendicular to the moving fabric wedges.
" Within New Zealand, protection from UV
rays is the primary benefit of a fabric structure, "
notes the Advanced Textiles Association New
Zealand (formerly OFPANZ), " and one that is
highly publicized with our depleting ozone. "
" The client requested a stylish, motorized
retractable shade to cover an outdoor seating
area, " says SunCraft NZ Ltd., the company
that installed the work. " It complements the
architectural design and does not have too many
external poles at ground level. "
In fact, it has only one outrigger pole (one
corner of the square farthest from the house),
and the fabric is attached to the house at the
other three corners. All the metal spars are
powder coated to match the house window
joinery, and the fabric color matches the
brownish Corten® steel exterior cladding.
The shade is operated by remote control and
synced with a wind sensor that automatically
retracts the sails if the ambient wind reaches
speeds of 40 km/h (25 mph). SunCraft states
that the outrigger " pole can be adjusted in
height by a winch that allows the sail to be
lowered in synchronization with sun movements
throughout the day ensuring shade coverage in
the late afternoon. "
Another sustainable aspect of the project is
that the outrigger pole is anchored with a ground
screw instead of a concrete footing, reducing
the carbon footprint and allowing for ease of
repositioning the assembly if needed in the future.
