180 Airfoil bracket fixed Sun Louvre
The Brief
The entire upper North story of this luxury Cottesloe home is clad in Danpalon sheeting providing the upper living spaces with natural filtered light and privacy. Louvretec 180 Airfoil louvres have been designed to shade the Danpalon panels during the summer months but the louvre angle allows light and warmth into the house during the winter months when the sun is low in the sky. The installation was created using the Louvretec bracket fixed configuration which rests seamlessly with overall design theme and floats across the face of the façade. The brackets were customised to suit the desired angle and centres for this solar passive application.
