If you want an inviting room... let the light in!
We are finishing off our attic to add two bedrooms, a full bath, and a common room. Instead of putting the dormers on the front of our house, we are adding double dormer windows on the back.
The sunlight will pour into the once dark attic.
More to come with this project.
For now, enjoy these images that use natural light in attics.
