Our design options & process
Design Configurations
Every conservatory across the UK is unique, with its own demands and dimensions. InShade understand that your shading solution must work within your individual space and that’s why we’re able to offer multiple stunning solutions for any given space, so you can bring any degree of style and practicality to your space.
Using a simple 3D model of your space, our designers will tailor a unique design and configuration for your conservatory roof sail blinds to ensure they perfectly complement your personal requirements, enhancing the beauty and functionality of your space. With unlimited design options and configurations to choose from, we are here to help you choose conservatory sail blinds that are right for you.
Sail blinds for your conservatory can be used individually or in groups and can be stretched, positioned and shaped to create a truly bespoke finish that meets your requirements on usability, shading and beauty.
Whether you need to shade the entire conservatory, or want to target specific areas, our designers can advise on the best options for you. For more information on how our specialists can assist you, please get in touch with us today.
Full Coverage
Option 1
Larger multipoint sail blinds proved the most cost-effective solutions. The style is minimal and simple and the effect is similar to traditional pleated roof blinds but still retains most of the benefits of sail blinds.
Option 2
Point to point designs provide around 65% coverage which is sufficient to control heat in most conservatories. A simple symmetrical design works best and this option maintains a bright open feel and makes the most of the view from your glass roof
Option 3
The ultimate sail blind solutions use multiple sail blinds to create a stunning feature in a single colour or with bold accent sail blinds. Lots of small gaps allows shafts of sunlight to dapple your space.
Option 4
Replace the accent triangles for diamonds to create beautiful geometric symmetry with your own combination of multiple sail blind shapes and colours. Remove the accent sail blinds during winter months to allow even more light in adjacent rooms.
Part Coverage
With shade sail blinds you can provide protection form the worst effects of heat and glare without covering your full roof. These solutions are most effective with a glass roof and a roof vent for optimum ventilation.
Option 5
A single sail blind creates an elegant attractive feature,and works well in both neutral and bold colours. Can be simple and symmetrical (as shown) or an extravagant wild and wonderful unique shape.
Option 6
Dropping sail blinds from a full coverage design can be an effective and attractive way to use the sail blinds to control heat and glare issues while keeping your big sky view. This approach also allows you to add to the coverage should your requirements change.
