The summer place of a restaurant gives new opportunities for attraction of clients. It is not a secret that during the summer period a terrace is a unique opportunity to entice visitors in the restaurant. Therefore many restaurateurs aspire to creation of the additional areas outside. Opening a summer platform presents an opportunity to break the rules a little, to change traditional style of the restaurant, to create something new, unfamiliar to regular customers. The summer terrace with a new interior allows deviation in the traditional menu, presentation original seasonal dishes and drinks. Open space will involve many visitors in an institution and, certainly, will make additional profit for the restaurant.
 To protect visitors of a summer platform from a rain and scorching beams of the summer sun it is possible in two known ways: by means of usual street umbrellas or having constructed a temporary canopy. The basic disadvantage of an umbrella is its limited use. In fact the heavy rain or a biting wind will force visitors to move inside of a premise or even absolutely to leave the place. Besides, street umbrellas are suitable only for democratic summer cafes and fast foods. In solid restaurants of a high price level it is more preferable to construct the special summer open terrace. The summer places located under a canopy, better protect from whims of weather. For sure it is pleasant to observe summer rain, being in the cozy, protected space.
Planning a terrace construction, approach to the choice of the company-contractor especially responsibly. The summer terrace should be conceptually thought over, well designed, planned and competently constructed.
Ask professionals advice about the materials for construction of a summer terrace. The design of this construction should pass daylight and be collapsible. The materials used for construction, should pass the air and not create a hotbed effect, to be steady against fading, tarnishing and deformation from sun rays. Practice shows that the most convenient for the summer are partially closed restaurant terraces. In opinion of architects, exclusive and very unusual form of such designs is well entered in surrounding space and any other architectural composition involves more attention.
A basis of all collapsible constructions is the rigid skeleton, carried out from metal, plastic or wood. Tensed fabric-membrane resists wind well, and does not vibrate or clap.
In comparison with the traditional building materials used in construction, the architectural membrane has a lot of advantages including the low cost price, small relative density, an opportunity of easy transformation and greater freedom in formation of space. Besides all the materials used in membrane architecture, are certificated on fire safety.
Membrane technology is compatible with such steady materials as stainless steel, aluminum, glass, plastic, concrete, stone, and wood. The plastic awning material allows to model difficult surfaces easily. For example, the building companies offer graceful awning designs with a dome-shaped roof, the planes passing in a pyramid or a cone, the awnings of the any form which are stretched for corners, etc.
In experts-designers opinion, correct usage of all opportunities of the materials the terrace can become quite stylish architectural object.
In a design of architectural fabrics the important properties providing an opportunity of formation not only effective, but also comfortable spaces are incorporated. Owing to the high flexibility, low weight and high durability some materials can cover greater areas without intermediate support, pass daylight, create absolutely new forms of buildings. And in the evening the awning, equipped with special illumination, isn't less effectively, than in sunlight.
Trees and the bushes growing near the restaurant, the surfaces surrounding the construction are considered in design. Besides specific durability of a fabric is high enough, that provides economy at creation of a supporting skeleton. The materials allow to save the electric power, and the easy design does not demand application of special equipment for installation.
