Current Situation and Solution: Skylight Canopy – Optimizing Space and Energy by Flexiiform
Skylight canopies are a modern architectural solution that allows skylights to operate comfortably in all weather conditions by blocking light, reducing heat and limiting energy loss. The ability to adjust the light and heat of the canopy will depend on the weight and coating on the canvas covering. Skylight canopies can be customized to suit many skylight styles, and there are also many fabric materials to choose from to suit the needs of use. Whether the skylight is small, large, extra large, horizontal or sloping, the canopy can adapt well, providing comfort and optimal energy efficiency.
Technical Requirements & Context Analysis
Skylights are an important architectural element that helps bring natural light and ventilation to interior spaces. However, in tropical climates like Vietnam, skylights can cause problems such as harsh sunlight, increased temperature, glare, or dust accumulation, reducing efficiency and comfort. Traditional shading solutions are often fixed, limiting the ability to flexibly adjust according to needs or weather conditions. The technical challenge is to need a skylight roofing solution that can: (1) Effectively control the amount of light and heat; (2) Good insulation; (3) Support natural ventilation; (4) Be highly flexible for automatic adjustment; (5) Harmonize with architectural design and increase aesthetics; (6) Easy to install and maintain. The skylight roofing solution was developed to comprehensively meet these requirements.
