Exterior Warema Venetians for Passive House-Inspired Home in Oxfordshire

Exterior Warema Venetian Blinds for a Passive House-Inspired Renovation in Oxfordshire


The Challenge

Our client was in the midst of a home renovation project in Oxfordshire, aiming to align their property with Passive House design principles. One of the key challenges they faced was managing heat gain through large expanses of glazing on two sliding doors, which were allowing excessive sunlight to enter during the warmer months.

The client required a shading solution that would help regulate indoor temperatures, maintain energy efficiency, and adhere to Passive House standards, all while preserving the clean and modern aesthetic of their home.

Our Solution

After discussing the client’s needs and Passive House requirements, we recommended exterior Warema Venetian blinds as the ideal solution. These blinds are specifically designed to reduce heat gain and glare while allowing for flexible light control.

To ensure the installation was seamless and integrated with the home's design, we installed the Venetian blinds with a recessed headbox and side channels, providing a sleek, modern appearance. The motorised system allows the client to easily adjust the angle of the blinds, offering precise control over natural light and temperature levels throughout the day.


The Results

  • Significant Heat Reduction: The external Venetian blinds have drastically reduced heat gain in the home, helping to keep the interior cool during warm weather.

  • Adherence to Passive House Principles: The blinds align with the client’s energy efficiency goals, contributing to a more sustainable and eco-friendly home.

  • Flexible Light Control: The adjustable slats allow the client to manage sunlight without blocking views or compromising on natural light.

  • Aesthetic Integration: With the recessed headbox and side channels, the blinds maintain a clean and contemporary look, enhancing the home’s design.

The client is thrilled with the results, especially the improved comfort and energy efficiency, making the Warema Venetian blinds the perfect addition to their Passive House-inspired renovation.
