Vallgatan Coffee Shop | Retractable Screens for Breathtaking Views

Challenge: Seamlessly Connecting Café Interiors to Outdoors in Nordic Climate

At Vallgatan Coffee Shop in Sweden, the installation of panoramic windows was intended to connect indoor and outdoor spaces—a vital experience for modern café patrons. But Stoett goes beyond traditional glazing. To truly fusion light, space, and function, the team sought a screen system that could shield guests from insects, glare, and wind—for maximum year-round comfort without compromising visibility.

Key challenges included:

• Uninterrupted Sightlines & Openness: Ensuring guests feel visually connected to the street and outdoors.

• Weather and Pest Protection: Screens needed to be deployable to block insects, rain, wind, and UV light whenever required.

• Flexible Operation: Patrons and staff should be able to deploy or retract screens in seconds, without intrusive hardware or manual effort.

• Elegant Fit with Café Ambience: The system should appear refined and integrated—not detracting from the café’s aesthetic or experience.

In short, Vallgatan Coffee Shop needed an elegant solution that would marry openness and protection—bringing outdoor ambiance inside, even when external conditions aren’t ideal.

Benefits: Atmospheric Ambiance, Comfort, and Operational Ease

1. Consistent Outdoor Visual Connection

Even when fully extended, the PanoramaUltra screens retain a clear field of view—meaning guests see outdoors even while shielded. This ensures that Vallgatan’s sense of place and visual openness are preserved.

2. Protection Without Sacrifice

Deploy the screens to block insects, solar glare, or wind gusts—without shutting off daylight or visibility. When the breeze is light or the sun mild, screens remain retracted to let atmosphere and light flow in.

3. Instant Mode Switching

With just a button or switch, staff can deploy or retract PanoramaUltra screens in seconds. This responsiveness keeps service smooth and guest experience uninterrupted—even when weather changes mid-service.

4. Preserved Aesthetics and Footprint

The screen housing is minimal (≈6″), and the system requires no floor tracks or bulky hardware. The visual integrity of windows and café design remains fully intact.

5. All-Season Usability

Screens help regulate daylight, reduce overheating, and offer shade during long Swedish summers. During cooler periods, retracting panels allow daylight in without compromising visual access or light levels.

6. Enhanced Guest Comfort & Satisfaction

By providing shade, bug protection, and seamless indoor-outdoor connection, guests enjoy extended stays and increased comfort—boosting dwell time and positive reviews.

7. Flexible Branding and Integration
