Sky Lantern Blinds

In contrast to conventional windows installed in vertical facades, sky lantern windows, alternatively called roof lanterns, are glass enclosures set into the roofline. This design choice significantly enhances the amount of sunlight entering the rooms beneath. The advantages of adding sky lantern blinds will be detailed in this guide.


Challenges of Sky Lantern Windows

Challenges of Sky Lantern Windows

Placement Restrictions: The unique design of sky lantern windows confines their installation mainly to rooftops or elevated portions of buildings, rendering them impractical for various architectural styles or specific site conditions.

Expense Considerations: The intricate architecture and required support of sky lantern windows often result in higher costs compared to standard window installations, making them a pricier option for bringing natural light indoors.

Light and Heat Management: Like skylights, sky lantern windows can lead to issues with excessive brightness and increased indoor temperatures, particularly with domed designs. This necessitates implementing effective shading solutions and thermal regulation strategies to maintain comfort levels inside.
