This lake house by Warren and Mahoney Architects is in Bremner Bay overlooking Lake Wanaka. It comprises a collection of five linked pavilions that create a series of courtyards for outdoor living.

This stunning example of New Zealand architecture by Warren & Mahoney and Breen Construction, composed of dark cedar, sits on an elevated site overlooking Lake Wanaka and Mt Alta.

The large outdoor room by Locarno Louvres, features Locarno RL200 louvre blades in a black anodised finish, providing a comfortable retreat from the elements.

"The house is a strong composition of dark cedar-clad buildings and materiality appropriate to its mountainous surroundings. The scissor truss structure of the main living pavilion is constructed with exposed recycled bridge timber, encompassed within the internal oak lining. The application of dark stain to the entirety of this main space further defines and focusses the views beyond. While large in the programme, every one of the carefully considered parts contributes effectively to the delightful sum. Strong robust exterior materials are applied in a variety of textures to define each of the external spaces, and they complement the warm, dark, refined tones of the internal finishes."

Locarno Louvres is a design led company, offering architects and designers a wide range of louvre systems for outdoor living.

Locarno’s louvre roof systems offer the perfect solution for creating sheltered outdoor rooms. These may be enclosed with manually adjustable louvred screens and sliding shutters.

Established in 2004, Locarno Louvres has developed its proprietary systems and designs to withstand the extremes of climate across New Zealand.

Our ethos is a design philosophy adopting clean lines and this is represented in the rectilinear forms of our louvre profiles and in every detail of our systems.

Our team works with architects, designers, builders and clients to create individualized designs and see this through to the final installation.

The difference is in the detail.
