Positioning your windows
Because roofs tend to be high up, loft spaces often have the best views. And taking a few simple principles into account, you can really make the most of the views from your home.
It’s important to select a window with the right length in relation to where it is on your roof, and the steepness of your roof’s pitch.
Window position and view
The angle of a roof window admits more light into a room than a vertical window. A roof window’s top edge can also be slightly higher than a vertical window’s, giving you a better view.
The more windows you have, the better your view. That’s why a great way to get the most out of your view and let in even more light is to add an extra VELUX window above or below your roof window.
