LOUVERS…

In Front Of A Million-Dollar View?

To a lot of people living on the coast with beautiful—and expensive—ocean views, the thought of installing exterior louvers on their windows and doors seems outrageous. To Geoff Sumich, a native New Zealander who operates a highly-acclaimed and successful California house design practice, its par for the course. “I can’t tell you how sad it is to see a beautiful glass-framed house overlooking the ocean, and then see thick heavy curtains pulled across the glass to block out the sun and view,” he laments.
