Glass Ceiling Skylights

17 photos

Light from above is the kind a window cannot give: a glass skylight washes down the walls and reaches the middle of a house, where rooms are usually darkest. It flatters rough surfaces such as flagstone floors and grey concrete walls, and roofs everything from a landing to a tree-filled atrium. Beneath one, orange rattan armchairs fill a double-height atrium.
