ABRASOL

2025
designed with
Ana Watty GuiterrEZ



Through poetry and opening arms, Abrasol's retractable shades revitalize the warmth of a home away from home.

The name, Abrasol...
"abra el sol" -> "open the sun"
     "habrá sol" -> "there'll be sun"
"abrazo al sol" -> "hug the sun"...
signifies the functions, structure and delight that was thoughtfully designed into this dynamic illumination.



Inspired from Mexican architecture and my design partner and I's cultural background/experiences.
