RESIDENTIAL

Entries, Hallways and Stairwells

Turn the darkest part of the home into the brightest.

These are the spaces everyone in a home moves through and nobody thinks about. They set the tone on arrival, they connect everything else, and they are almost always the darkest part of the plan.

A corridor with a lit ceiling reads as wider than the same corridor lit from the walls, because the eye follows the brightest plane. On a stair, light from above falls where you actually need to see. An entry that opens into daylight rather than into a dim hallway changes the whole experience of coming home. These spaces are used at every hour, including the middle of the night, which is exactly when a real skylight offers nothing at all.

Why it works here

Health and mood

Regular exposure to daylight helps regulate sleep, lifts mood and supports mental wellbeing.

A connection to nature

We are outdoor beings who live indoors. Our eyes want to see sky, and a room that gives them one feels different to be in.

A more spacious feel

Lifting the ceiling plane makes a narrow hallway or a tight entry read as wider and taller than it measures.

Circadian rhythm

The colour and brightness shift every 6 seconds to follow the real sun at your location.

Better days, better nights

A daylight cycle indoors helps balance the body clock, supporting performance through the day and sleep at the end of it.

Sunlight when you want it

It can mirror the actual time of day, or you can simply turn it on at night. A light and a skylight in one.

Very realistic

So realistic that the only way your friends find out they are not real is if you tell them.

True colour

Ra98 colour rendering across the full spectrum, so skin, food, timber and stone all look the way they should.

No radiant heat, no UV and no solar gain, whatever the sky outside is doing.

Risk free installation
