Window wnings

Anyone have these on their house? Either fabric or metal? One side of our house is it by afternoon sun and the rooms get very hot. I'm wondering if window awnings would help keep the rooms cooler. Don't need them on other windows and wonder if it would look strange to only have them on part of the house.

My parents house has a large fabric awning on the west side & it made a huge difference.

Interesting idea-I'd not thought of it. I'm curious to see if anyone's tried it and if it helps.
