Let in the light from above
Above: We tend to think laterally
when it comes to connecting
with the outdoors, but embracing
views and light from above is
equally important; this stunning
roof lantern captures a view of
the clouds in this cosy living/
dining space created by Westbury
Garden Rooms.Framing the view
Left: If you’re looking to
transform an existing home,
there’s a temptation to gravitate
towards the back of the
house when trying to create a
connection with the outdoors.
Here, Mulroy Architects’ design
includes beautiful picture
windows with slim sightlines in
the bedrooms and bathrooms,
meaning the influence of
natural light and the views isfelt
throughout the house, ratherthan
exclusively on the ground floor.
