What was the project brief?

The team at Bluebells Short Break Unit reached out to us with a need for a walkway canopy that would provide shelter whilst creating a fun and eye-catching space. The canopy was to be installed outside the lounge and dining room, creating a sheltered are for the staff and children to use – keeping them dry during periods of wetter weather, but also creating a sheltered space for them to enjoy in the summer months – protected from harsh UV. The team loved our rainbow-inspired designs, which use colourfully infused polycarbonate roofing, and wanted to see how we could tailor this for their space.

 

What was our school canopy solution?

We installed the Motiva Linear™ canopy, measuring 7740mm x 3455mm, making it an ideal fit for the space. The polycarbonate roof includes a selection of our colourful polycarbonate range, including the shades Daffodil, Foxglove, Lagoon, Mandarin, Mint, Poppy, and Violet. The canopy steelwork has been finished in Moss Green Duracoat™, providing a durable and long lasting finish.
