Falstaff Stage 2 - Pool Fencing & Canopy

We recently completed work for Faulkner Construction at this waterfront property in Half Moon Bay, which earned a prestigious House of the Year Gold Award. This award-winning transformation is a testament to the perfect blend of practicality and design, creating an environment that feels less like a suburban home and more like a five-star tropical resort, nestled in an East Auckland neighborhood.

One of the most striking features of this project is the glass canopy / roofing, which serves as a centerpiece in the outdoor living area. This canopy, installed by Haynes Glass, is more than just a shelter; it’s a statement piece that enhances the overall aesthetic of the property. The glass structure elegantly extends over the outdoor space, providing covering while allowing natural light to flood through, creating a bright, airy environment that blurs the line between indoor and outdoor living. This feature not only elevates the property’s visual appeal but also adds a layer of functional sophistication, making the outdoor space usable year-round, regardless of weather conditions.

Complementing the glass canopy is the upgraded pool fence, another hallmark of the collaboration between Faulkner Construction and Haynes Glass. This pool fence is not just a safety feature; it’s a critical design element that enhances the property's modern aesthetic. The fence’s sleek lines and clear panels maintain the visual flow of the space, allowing for uninterrupted views of the pool and surrounding areas. Its design ensures that safety does not compromise style, merging practicality with high-end design. The upgraded fence ties in beautifully with the glass canopy, together creating a cohesive and luxurious outdoor environment that invites relaxation and leisure.

Inside the home, the use of glass balustrading further amplifies the sense of openness and continuity. The internal glass balustrades not only serve as a sleek safety feature but also contribute to the airy, spacious ambiance that defines the interior. By allowing light to pass through unobstructed and maintaining clear sightlines across different levels, these balustrades enhance the fluid connection between spaces, reinforcing the home's modern, open-plan design. This thoughtful integration of glass elements, both inside and out, is key to achieving the seamless blend of luxury and comfort that this property exudes.

This project is a perfect example of how thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship can transform a home into a resort-like retreat. The glass canopy and pool fence are not just functional additions but are integral to the property's overall appeal, reinforcing the luxurious, tropical atmosphere that defines this award-winning home.
