Skylights Across The World

  • 18 June, 2018
  • Energy Efficiency Centre
  • EEC

Thousands of homes across Australia currently enjoy the benefits of skylights – from natural light to energy efficiency.

However the advantages go far beyond this and some of the most well designed homes in the world have incorporated skylights into their aesthetic.

Have a look at these stunning homes and properties which use skylights in new and innovative ways:

Kobe, Japan

Japan isn’t exactly known for its spacious homes and this was no exception. With just 22 square metres to work with, this narrow timber home was tightly packed with houses on either side.

However using skylights and rectangular roof lights the space has been transformed. Skylights have enabled light to reach all areas of the house, completely changing the feel of the residence.

Brooklyn, USA



Source: dezeen

This townhouse was a corner plot which needed to be opened up and made into a light and airy family home.

Of course skylights were the natural option here – especially in the bathroom where they could bring in light to open up the space and avoid having to use artificial lighting throughout the day.

Porto, Portugal

Skylights were used on every level of this three storey townhouse in the bustling city of Porto. The huge benefit of skylights here was their ability to offer natural light into a home whilst still maintaining privacy.

The home is set on a busy street therefore to have all the benefits of natural light flooding in to create a bright home whilst still being private and unseen to the outside was the best of both worlds.

Bali

Bali is home to some of the world’s most idyllic villas and holiday hideaways. Skylights are used in many of these including a stunning creation in the village of Kelating.

Here, bamboo construction is used to create a roof which incorporates chimney like skylights – bringing in light and enhancing the feeling of a bright, natural paradise.

Sydney, Australia

In this striking Sydney home, architects have worked on an extension which features a concertina rooflight. Stepped skylights twist up to a peak at one side of the extension – creating something that is both beautiful and functional.

Holland

Here’s a dentist with a difference. This clinic will soothe anyone with a fear of sitting in the dentist chair, and all with the help of skylights. Just imagine sitting and being able to look up at the trees outside – a dentist appointment complete with garden views and light spacious interiors.

Amazing customer service and great product. We had them install a skylight and it was completed inside a month. Very quick to answer emails and any questions we had! Didn't feel like they where trying to over sell us on their products and Adam was honest when he thought a product wouldn't work. Couldn't recommend them more

I had EEC install some window insulating film just in the nick of time! Great work - professional, courteous - and the product really seems to be making a difference to my energy bill.

We were extremely impressed by the Service. One of the sheets lifted away in the corner of the window and when we contacted them they fixed it for us. Would recommend this store.

Very satisfied with the team and installer from the Energy Efficiency Centre. We had 2 Velux Sun Tunnels installed which have given us much needed light. I'm particularly impressed with the sleekness of the design and being flush to the ceiling is very unobtrusive and contemporary. Emma

I had properly rated insulation batts installed throughout my roof space. The old ones were too thin, tatty and covered with decades of dirt and rodent droppings, etc. The old ones were removed, (brave men), and the ceiling vacuumed. I have peace of mind now. All was done quickly and efficiently, and I hope I will notice a real difference this winter. I also decided to have five of the very best skylights. I knew from previous experience that skylights make a huge difference in those dark corners, and they have. Great for the soul to to use these previously gloomy areas of the house. All staff were professional. No problems encountered. Orders were completed quickly.

Got a skylight installed by EEC. Quick turnaround on a quote after my call. I had Adrian provide the quote and perform installation. He is very professional, friendly and knew his trade. Arrived on time everyday, didn't make a big mess and cleaned up afterwards. Very happy with the finished product. Highly recommend this company.

The efficiency film on the windows made a big difference to my electric bill for summer. The installation process was prompt and fastidious.
