Get More Daylight Into Your Home!

2nd May 2024

Research shows that daylight is vital for our health and wellbeing. It not only affects your sleep quality, but even strengthens the immune system.

With plenty of daylight, a space can feel bigger and more spacious. It also helps heating up homes and reducing energy consumption by reducing the need for artificial lighting.

So… How can you let more daylight in?

1. Choose bigger windows
It may seem obvious, but window choice is nuanced. A taller window or a window is a higher position, distributes light evenly across the room, as opposed to a lower window, that concentrates light around it.

2. Position your window strategically
Consider the orientation of each room in your house. This along with factors like the presence of local shade from trees or near buildings, will influence the amount of light in each room.

3. Draw light further into your home
It may be difficult to get enough light in deepest rooms of your home, even on the brightest summer day. Consider having skylights to illuminate your space.
