Skylights to enhance your space

A firm favourite at Retreat Design, skylights have the ability to transform your interior in to a light, bright and more spacious looking area.

Not only does natural light enhance the beauty and perspective of any given space, it allows for a more healthy environment with an array of health benefits.

According to the Australian Government, a skylight can admit more than three times as much light as a vertical window of the same size, so the benefits of natural light are increased with the installation of a skylight.

Some of the health benefits include:

  • Reduction in seasonal affective disorder

  • Reduced eye strain

  • Lowering of stress levels

  • Improved sleep and circadian rhythms

  • Elevated mood, increased creativity and reduced anxiety

With a variety of different skylights available including Velux, Sun Tunnels and Roof Windows, there are a myriad of options depending on what you want to achieve. By utilising the abundant natural light we have in Perth, you can create a home which has better thermal properties, reduced energy usage and increased ventilation.

Looking to maximise daylight and fresh air, or looking to create an architectural feature? With a range of fixed, manually opening and remote controlled skylights for pitched roofs and flat roofs, VELUX design skylights suitable for practically any room, building or roof type.

Retreat Design typically works with a builder to install skylights and can recommend placement and product type to suit any space.

Take a look at some of our previous projects where we have utilised skylights to enhance the design and space. For more information or to schedule in a FREE initial design consultation, give us a call on (08) 6101 1190.
