Configure my pergola

Brise-⁠soleil configurator, in CorsicaYour brise-soleil, in three dimensions.

On the façade, with the pergola or at the corner of the house: choose the louvres, their spacing and their angle, then watch their shadow glide across the terrace, from summer to winter.

The setting helps you picture it. It also goes with your request: it tells us what your house, your terrace and your façade look like.

Step 2 of 8: Where the canopy goes

On the façade, with a pergola or on a corner.

Where it goesOn the façade

A canopy projects up to 2,50 m on its brackets, and further with tie rods. It runs up to 20 m long, in aluminium or wood.

Step 3 of 8: The product

Canopy ranges, in aluminium or wood.

Step 6 of 8: Colours

The manufacturer's colour chart, our favourites.

The timberLight Accoya

The colour of a timber brise-soleil is that of its wood, chosen at the louvre step. Tellier warns that it weathers to grey over time. Aluminium or stainless steel parts are RAL powder coated or anodised.

Our favourites are our own preferences; on screen, colours are approximate, and we confirm them on a sample.

Step 7 of 8: Operation

Fixed louvres, or adjustable by actuator.

Operation

Fixed louvres do not move: their angle and spacing are calculated once, for summer shade and winter sun.

Span “depending on configuration” according to Tellier: it is calculated during the survey. Timber weathers to grey over time.

You would rather have guidance

Or let's do it together.

A brise-⁠soleil is also designed in front of the façade, compass in hand. You can entrust it to us in three ways.

What you set here

The ranges we install, with what their manufacturers publish. The configurator does not replace the survey: span and spacing are calculated against the wind load on your façade.

  • At your home, first

    Your house, the view, the terrace, the ground and the façade. Then where the canopy goes, aluminium or timber, and the range.

  • Fixed louvres

    Tellier: AZUR aerofoil, rectangular RECTI’LIGNE, C-shaped CANICULE, timber WOOD’LIGNE, with their published sections and spans.

  • Adjustable louvres

    Tellier’s adjustable AZUR and RECTI’LIGNE, by 230 V or 24 V actuator.

  • Brackets or tie rods

    Up to 2.50 m projection on its brackets, beyond that with tie rods, as at Casa Ghjovi.

  • What reaches us

    Nothing, until you send your request. The configuration stays on your device, and in the link you share.

The questions we are asked.

How can I contact you to discuss my sun protection or outdoor design project?

Our team answers your questions and presents our services. You can reach us in three ways:

What is a brise-soleil and what are its benefits?

A brise-soleil controls sunlight and heat in the home. It blocks the sun’s rays, lets natural light in and enhances your outdoor space. As you use the air conditioning less, it also helps reduce energy consumption.

Which materials do you use to make bespoke brise-soleil?

We use high-quality materials such as aluminium, wood or steel. They are robust, weather-resistant and easy to maintain. Each brise-soleil is made to measure, to suit your space and your taste.

Can I personalise my brise-soleil?

Yes. Each brise-soleil is designed to measure, according to your needs and your project. You choose the dimensions, materials, colours and, if you wish, a motorisation system.

Are brise-soleil effective against the heat in Corsica?

Yes. Our brise-soleil are designed for the high temperatures and intense sunshine of Corsica. They limit heat and keep your rooms cool, with pleasant light inside.

Do you need planning permission to install brise-soleil?

In most cases, a prior declaration of works is enough, especially if the brise-soleil are installed on an existing façade. Depending on the size of the installation and the location, planning permission may be required. We guide you through these administrative steps.
