Respected architect, James Russell’s home won major awards and was featured in many international design magazines. “When I designed the house there was nothing available that screened the opening to the courtyard without being invasive,” James said. The availability of the Centor S1E Eco-Screen™ inspired James to re-employ the builders to make some adjustments. As the screens can be fitted to any existing door or window, James was able to design them into his home with minimal adjustments. James feels the screens are almost unnoticeable. “After you’ve looked into the courtyard there is no memory of the screens you have just looked through. Even inside, we feel we are living in a veranda space.”
Wonderful screening is more important than wonderful doors James Russell, James Russell Architect
Inspiration The option of ‘living outdoors’ is now fully protected Shawn Godwin, Base Architecture
Leading architect, and Founding Director of Base Architecture, Shawn Godwin, has just installed the new S1E Eco-Screen™ in his own home and sees enormous potential for the screen and blind system in the homes and buildings he designs. “Blinds have always been an issue for architects ensuring they won’t clash with windows when open, or look like some clunky add on. The S1E Eco-Screen™ just disappears. They are brilliant. The science and research behind opening and closing the Centor screens and blinds is more sophisticated than anything else available on the market. Centor’s screens are clean-lined and concealed and aesthetically very pleasing. “Privacy and protection from insects and sun has to date meant changing the whole dynamics of the look and feel of the design. The Centor blind and screen combinations change all that. They allow the building to stay true to its outdoor design.”
Open & Shut There is an enormous difference between doors, windows, blinds and screens. When you know what makes them move choosing the best is an open and shut case. Make sure your openings are moved by Centor. www.movedbycentor.com
