384 opening roof louvre blades, creating bays of Opening Roofs at stunning angles, spanning 23 metres along The Hamptons, New York oceanfront.
Not your typical Hamptons looking house, this house is modern and cutting edge. It took four years of planning and consents, then a 2 year build.
This luxury home is located at the end of Long Island so we knew durability was as crucial as accurate site measurements & a superior finish.
Louvretec Auckland’s Manufacturing team constructed the bays of Opening Roofs to finished sizes in the Auckland factory, effectively creating a kit set that was ready to install, eliminating the need for any cutting on site only assembly. Local construction workers were amazed at the quality and how well it fitted together.
Louvretec Auckland’s installation crew flew to site to ensure a smooth, efficient installation, assisted by Louvretec’s local dealer in New York, Blindtek. Blindtek work with high profile architect Barnes Coy who design architecturally significant homes with considerations including respect for the site, dramatic forms, coherence of function, exterior-interior design integration, appropriateness and aesthetics of materials.
Louvretec was fortunate to win this contract with other companies weary of the complex angles this job required. Louvretec’s engineering and experience outclassed other louvre suppliers for this project something we are very proud of.
The Hamptons is regarded as the summer break destination – over winter it snows. With a high windzone comparable to Omaha the Super Roof Lite was a perfect option.
This home has since featured on Netflix's Million Dollar Beach House reality tv show.

It has been said of today's architecture that everything has a flow to the outside. This practical statement sums up what we do at Louvretec - our products provide links and connections that enable that flow.
Open up your home to the outdoors and enjoy indoor outdoor flow by installing a Louvretec Opening Roof or Retract Roof. Opening Roofs can be motorised open to let the freshness of the day in to your outdoor room, or close the louvres when you require overhead shelter for your deck area. Our Retract Roof takes it one step further by being able to retract back the louvres when you want to view the sky above.
Close in the sides of your Opening Roof with our frameless Glass Sliding Doors or Mesh Shade Outdoor Blinds to create a beautiful outdoor room in your home and enjoy welcomed space and flow to the outside.
Our range also includes a large range of Sun Louvre systems available in many width sizes from 70mm right up to our 600mm wide maxi louvre blade with sizes in between. Louvre systems can be motorised, hand operable or end or bracket fixed.
Our sun louvres also create beautiful sliding or bifolding Shutters as well as stunning louvre gates and fences that add to the street appeal, functionality and design aesthetic of your home.
