Registered Master Builders - House of the Year is a prestigious competition that celebrates building excellence in New Zealand. It awards the best homes and builders and the craftsmanship behind them.
Altus Window Systems fabricators have strong relationships with many of New Zealand's premier builders. This is evident with the number of home entries that featured Altus Window Systems products. But three in particular were a class above...why? Because these homes they were adorned with the prestigious title of 'Local Supreme Winner' for their region.

With its free-flowing spaces and masses of floor-to-ceiling glazing, the home’s intentions are clear – to deliver easy family living and uninterrupted views. VIEW SHOWCASE
