Roofscapes has been chosen by the City of Paris to research new adaptation solutions

Roofscapes has been awarded the INNOTOIT25 grant by the City of Paris. In 2026, this support will allow us to develop and test a deployable shading solution designed specifically for Parisian zinc rooftops. The goal: develop a lightweight, reversible and high-performance system capable of significantly reducing summer overheating while having a minimal visual impact on existing buildings.

This recognition strengthens our belief that developing a wide range of strategies to adapt roofs to summer heatwaves is a key lever for urban climate transformation. More information at the link below:
