It seems everyone who has modern houses with huge windows has this problem – in summer, of course, it becomes even more acute. I find the idea of such an awning quite charming, it blocks the sun sufficiently while still letting in light, without greatly reducing the outside view. But doesn't it deteriorate quickly if you use it in winter as well?
We have the awning directly under the patio roof (guided in rails)... so there are no problems. Moisture does not get in even when it rains, even if you leave it extended sometimes. Since the awning is integrated into the smart home, it retracts automatically in case of rain or strong wind anyway (even though it probably wouldn’t be necessary).
Without a roof... good question, but sure, with rain and dirt it could quickly look "terrible."
