Excellent Product Design – Gardening and Outdoor Living

Since 2012, the German Design Award has been one of the most renowned international design awards, annually showcasing products and projects for their quality, innovation, and design excellence. In the category Excellent Product Design – Gardening and Outdoor Living, the Versuz Linea by Harol impressed the jury with its sleek lines, circular design, and functional sophistication. The pergola, with its horizontal fabric, combines refined aesthetics with natural cooling, and is ideally suited to contemporary architecture, low-rise buildings, and projects with limited installation space.

Durable, comfortable, and forward-looking

The Versuz Linea was developed as a sun-shading solution that provides natural cooling on hot days – without compromising on design. Smart expansion options, including integrated heating and the optional solar-powered Variovolant Solar, further enhance user comfort. At the same time, the design remains elegant and minimalist, featuring slim support posts and a refined, high-quality finish.

The German Design Award 2026 is an impressive acknowledgement of the Versuz Linea and the dedication of our team.

About Versuz Linea

Versuz Linea is a horizontal, minimalist pergola that combines modern design with ultimate comfort for your terrace or outdoor space. Thanks to its horizontal wall-mounted installation and adjustable support posts, this pergola fits almost any terrace — even in low-build situations or where installation space is limited.

The solar protection fabric fully retracts into a compact, enclosed cassette, extending the lifespan of the fabric while maintaining a clean, streamlined appearance. Optionally, Versuz Linea can be equipped with the Variovolant Solar: a solar-powered, motorised valance that provides additional protection against low-angle sunlight and unwanted views. Integrated LED lighting and optional heating solutions ensure comfortable outdoor living, even in the evening and during cooler temperatures.
