shows a deck with wires. We recently did the same at our house, replacing the original cedar spindles. I can't say enough good things about this. Painting spindles was a horrible job and we no longer have to do this. Now, we see the view and not the spindles. In the winter, it's now easy to clear snow off the deck. I know a lot of folks put glass around their decks, but you have to clean this ... I can't imagine! So thanks for showing this picture. It's a great idea for decks

Screens and easy to see through railings. Curtains are likely cheaper though and more easily replaced.

Nicest yet - glass railing

Glass on lake side and railings on sides...check if it would cost less. Also like the roof over the deck and the pillars on the deck...not so much the pillars below.

Material covering that perogola is berdac: close profile clear poly-carbon sheeting (to protect against the rain). Check to see how it stands up to Canadian winter and snow. And imagine that leaves and grime collect on top. Likely need to clean the top as it would show through to under neath.

Q

Glass covering perogalo....tinted glass would give a bit of shade but still good light?....would it get too hot? The architects are in BC...so holds up to snow likely?

Diego Bortolato Architetto 2016-03-23 (Italy) This is a simple wooden beam system, with rollers blind on top of it, to help on microclimate regulation of the interior of the flat (we are on top of a multi storey building) and to protect the space during our hot (Italian) summer.

Q

Curtain idea (but not white like these)... Karen has a screen curtain as well as shade curtain...from Canadian Tire, I think....you hardly notice them when they are tied back

Retractableawnings.com Inc. 2014-11-11 tmhburns This system appears to be mounted ON TOP of the wood beams. It would be best to mount IN BETWEEN the wood beams to prevent rain, sun and hail from entering between the system and the wood beams. Examples of a product mounted IN BETWEEN the wood beams is our line of retractable patio cover systems which includes 18 models two of which are made of pressure-treated and vacuum-treated Nordic wood and the rest are made of non-rusting aluminum and non-rusting Inox stainless steel components. Of the 18 models, 7 are free standing and 9 can be attached to an existing or new house or commercial building. In addition, 2 of the 18 models can be attached to an existing or new pergola (Firenze and Rimini models) and 1 of the 18 models can span wall to wall without posts (Rimini model). For a side by side matrix comparison of all 18 retractable patio cover system models, please click on or copy and paste the link below into your browser address bar.

Our Town Plans 2016-07-11 That's a roller shade manufactured by West Awning Co. using 'Manhattan Fog' fabric (4876-0000) by Sunbrella.

Q

Would a retractable awning work for the shaded area...flat, angled down...what about on a downward "V" like our peak extension for a covered deck?

Q

Retractible shades as shade option...can have shade and protection in summer and sun in winter
