- Lighter colours can reflect more sunlight which will keep your outdoor space cooler. Darker colours will absorb heat but may look more suitable with your contemporary home.
- The angle. The angle will determine how much shade and protection from the elements it provides. If you are looking to protect your home from the rain, a shallow angle would be more suitable, but a steeper angle offers more comprehensive sun protection.
