Butterfly Alba

Optimise your outdoor space in the blink of an eye with the Alba Butterfly system by Outdoor StudioDesign.

The new Butterfly retractable fabric Pergola from Outdoor StudioDesign is an innovative version of the Alba that incorporates a new pantograph cover mechanism with a fabric that folds upwards.

The Butterfly Pergola won the prize for innovation and technology in Stuttgart in 2024.

Butterfly retractable pergola: synonymous with protection and waterproofing

Visualise an outdoor space transformed into a living space, inhabited by your emotions and filled with your passions. We’ve done it with Imago®: the very essence of your style.

The Alba Butterfly system from Outdoor StudioDesign is exceptionally waterproof.

In tests under heavy rainfall, its performance far exceeded the Class 2 standards of EN 13561:2015, which specifies a value of 56 l/h/m2.

In fact, values of up to 300 l/h/m2 were recorded, equivalent to around 11,000 l/h over the maximum coverage.

Tubes with full-radius calendering ensure optimum watertightness of the fabric, while the rainwater drainage system considerably reduces the risk of dripping inside the pergola.

Practical & Compact

This new pantograph system uses aluminium rods to support the fabric tubes, allowing the fabric to be packed upwards.

Unlike the Pergotenda® system, which folds the fabric downwards, the Butterfly system leaves all the space underneath free.

Thanks to pantograph technology, the dimensions of the fully-packed fabric are reduced by up to 40% compared with the same size Pergotenda® system, considerably reducing the amount of space required.
