Light from above: skylights and voids

Daylight as a material

At AD House, a louvred skylight lets light fall onto the concrete below, its pattern changing through the day. The void beneath it draws light further down, reaching the ground floor.

At BY House, two voids open the house to light from above: one above the staircase, one above the kitchen. Windows at both draw daylight down through the full height of the house.

At PS House, glass blocks integrated into the second-floor void wall allow natural daylight to penetrate deep into the centre of the house, reducing the reliance on artificial lighting during the day.
