Waiheke Project
Project
Outdoor spaces are a natural extension of the home and deserve the same level of design consideration as the interior. At this Waiheke residence, the sheltered outdoor room seamlessly extends the living space, creating a comfortable area that can be enjoyed throughout the year. The organic black anodised finish of the LOCARNO RL200 louvre system complements the weathered palette of shuttered concrete and the surrounding landscape, allowing the structure to sit effortlessly within its environment.

Outdoor living was an integral consideration of the design of this beach-side home with living spaces flowing seamlessly from indoor to outdoor. Two louvred pergolas provide sheltered outdoor rooms regardless of the conditions and wind direction. Both pergolas utilise double bays of motorised LOCARNO RL200 in a black anodised finish. The RL200 profile is a fine rectilinear profile that allows maximum light into the outdoor room and the adjacent living areas.
Architectural detail: The steel PFC pergolas are both cantilevered of centrally located posts.
