Relax at heights

Ulaelu OÜ transforms the outdoor space on the 11th floor of Nobe headquarters using Pratic's Connect pergola: glass panels, lighting, and ventilation create a relaxing area usable year-round

Thanks to the design of the Estonian company Ulaelu OÜ, the outdoor space on the 11th floor of the headquarters of Nobe, a specialist in building construction, has been transformed into a relaxation area. Pratic’s Connect pergola, with its Spy Glass windows, becomes an extension of the building.

Equipped with an aluminium roof and adjustable louvres, it controls lighting (with LED Line RGB technology around the perimeter) and ventilation, allowing the terrace to be used all year round. Self-supporting and with a width of approximately 10 square metres, Connect comes complete with a Set platform that can be installed even on uneven terrain and allows for customised flooring, in this case wood. The uprights and slats match the colours of the building, thanks to the patented pergola profiles on both sides.
