Questions
on your mind.
01What is a hedgehog roof?+
The name "hedgehog" is used on the market for different natural claddings. What is shown here is a layered roof interpretation built with short reed bundles.
02Which structures use a hedgehog roof?+
It is used on structures such as gazebos, shade structures and garden pavilions. The roof form and support system are assessed per area.
03What should be considered for rain and fire?+
How natural fibers behave against water and moisture changes with the pitch and the installation, and dry fibers are combustible. It is wise to discuss these points with the team in the project conversation.
04How is the sample selected?+
The material sample and the fringe cut are selected together before installation. You can share photos of the area for the conversation.

Project note for Hedgehog roof
In areas such as gazebos, shade structures and garden pavilions, first define the limits of the application and the condition of the existing surface. Using a sample, evaluate how the look of short, dense, layered fibers relates to the light and other materials in the space.
For a quote, share a general photo of the area, close-ups of connection details and approximate measurements together. If you expect outdoor exposure, heavy use or special maintenance, add this to the project note.
