ShadeScapes Americas Introduces the Cuscini Collection Of Shade Cabanas
June 19, 2012 – Paonia, Colorado – Today ShadeScapes Americas announced the latest addition to their selection of high-end, distinctive shade solutions, the Cuscini Collection. Consisting of three cabana styles, the Cuscini Collection includes fixed, retractable and multi-retractable roof structures.
“Cuscini cabanas are in high demand in Canada and now Cuscini-Design has assigned ShadeScapes Americas as their sole US distributor to bring these beautiful designs to the United States and Caribbean islands,” said Jo Edmondson, vice president, sales and marketing for ShadeScapes Americas, Paonia, Colo. “With the depth of this collection, we see tremendous potential across multiple hospitality, designer and high end retail markets.”
Cuscini cabanas are designed and manufactured by Cuscini-Design, a Canadian company headquartered outside of Montreal in Mirabel, Quebec. Within the collection, there are two fixed-roof designs, the Abri Cabana and Corsica Cabana, both offering ample space for protected outdoor entertainment and alfresco living. Throughout the Cuscini Collection there are 15 different cabana sizes and seven standard colors.
The Abri Cabana is the entry-level design offering a fixed roof with a single rail system that allows one layer of full curtains. Corner deco curtains can be added to create a more custom look.

The Cabrio Cabana features a retractable roof that gives the option of either open sky or shaded use. “Closing the roof completely creates an intimate ambiance, away from the elements and distraction of the rest of the world,” said Edmondson. “By opening the roof, the ultimate outdoor living experience can be realized. The Cabrio is also the perfect product for spa areas.” A double rail system is standard in the Cabrio along with an endless array of color and design options.
The Terrace Concept is a multi-cabana system that joins together more than one retractable roof structure to create a large outdoor multifunctional living and entertainment space. This architectural design is a one of a kind cabana system offering endless possibilities to create customized outdoor living areas for any commercial or residential spaces. The retractable roof with double rail system allows for up to two layers of full curtains plus corner deco curtains.
Each cabana style has special design options including full acrylic or mesh curtains with zippers to enclose the cabana. Sheer panels also can be added to create a preferred mood. Plastic curtains and mosquito netting options are available.
