About this asset

Modern horizontal brise-soleil Revit family featuring three curved aerofoil blades mounted between vertical structural side brackets on an exterior wall. Constructed as a modular solar shading unit, the assembly consists of three horizontal aerofoil-profile louvre blades held between rigid vertical end plates. Each blade features an extruded convex curved profile designed to deflect direct solar radiation while admitting diffuse daylight. The supporting side channels provide structural anchorage directly to the building envelope or substructure, detailed with mechanical fastener points. Rendered in a clean monochrome finish typical of architectural aluminium extrusions, the geometry delivers defined crisp shadow lines across the facade elevation.

The download is a 225 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load the.rfa family into project environments to attach to external walls or window headers. Place units across exterior curtain walls or structural masonry, adjusting positioning to align with glazed window modules. Revit material parameters can be mapped to project finish standards such as powder-coated aluminium or anodised bronze. Visualisers can export geometry for facade daylight analysis and exterior shadow casting studies in standard rendering engines.

Ideal for commercial offices, contemporary residential multi-family housing, educational institutions, and healthcare complexes requiring passive solar shading. The component pairs effectively with ribbon glazing, aluminium curtain wall mullions, punch-window reveals, and vented facade panels. Specifiers searching for architectural sun louvers, aerofoil brise-soleil, exterior sunshades, or solar baffle screens can deploy this component across schematic envelope studies through detailed exterior documentation sets.
