One of our projects recently received a grand prize award from VELUX America LLC in a recent VELUX® Why Skylights Photo Contest for creative use of VELUX skylights! You can read all about the project here. The judges liked the fact that we used two skylights in addition to four windows to provide a light-filled space for my client, a local food writer, who takes photos of her tasty creations in the space.


We love skylights. They offer a way to add daylight and ventilation to a space.
