Sun sail for hospitality in Leutkirch – the terrace of Backhaus Häussler

In Leutkirch in the Allgäu, Backhaus Häussler runs a branch with a spacious outdoor terrace. Guests sit outside all day – in sunshine as much as in changeable weather. The brief: shading that spans the large area, stays out of the way in daily operation and suits the striking architecture of the building.

The challenge: a large terrace in front of a striking façade

The terrace sits directly in front of the branch's façade and opens onto the square. Classic large parasols would have put many stands on the floor – in the way during service and to be cleared away when it gets windy. What was needed was shading that keeps the seating free, can be operated by remote control and suits the architecture of the building.

Shading that keeps the square open

The Doppeldreieck sun sail spans the terrace and the structure stays slim. Tables and benches stand freely, and the view across the square stays open – from above as much as from the guests' point of view.

Tables and benches in the shade of the sun sail

The Doppeldreieck sun sail spans the terrace freely and shades the seating generously without cluttering the area with parasol stands.

Operation is electric: a press of the remote control is enough, and the sail extends or retracts. Putting parasols up and taking them down is a thing of the past.

Remote control in a hand, used to operate the sun sail

That is exactly where it differs from a parasol: one press of the remote control is enough. Nobody has to carry stands, open parasols or clear them away when the wind rises. The terrace is ready in a few seconds – and service carries on.

Project highlights

NUM 1

Shade without parasol stands

The sail spans the terrace freely. Tables and benches stand where they are needed.

NUM 2

Slim in the picture

Masts and fittings recede, and the façade of the building stays visible.

NUM 3

Operated by remote control

One press of a button extends and retracts the sail – no cranking and no parasols to set up.

NUM 4

Works in any weather

Water-repellent fabric and safe retraction in wind keep the terrace usable all season.

Conclusion

The terrace of Backhaus Häussler in Leutkirch shows what an electrically retractable sun sail does in everyday hospitality: generous shade, free seating and operation by remote control. The same principle shades the terraces in Illertissen and Memmingen.
