It is now more popular than ever for architects and property developers to add a skypod or roof lantern to their project designs, but why? At Canova we think we have the answer!
In years gone by most skylights have been made from heavy aluminium, making them not only rather costly but the unwieldy industrial look didn’t suit everybody’s taste. The PVC versions also looked awkward due to the materials not being used for its designated purpose.
Later, roof lantern constructions used standard double glazing elements which were perhaps even more unsightly because that material was not designed for skylights.
Modern Roof Lanterns & Skylights…
This paved the way for fibreglass Skypods; which offer an outstanding appearance and a cheaper, yet more durable option, which provides the perfect match for your existing PVC-U windows and doors.
Skypods are a versatile and innovative system of roof lantern, for both pitched and flat roofs, which combine contemporary appearances with unparalleled quality to inspire you with an exciting and new interior experience.
Skypods can create a stylish, natural light flooded space in any home, and nothing transforms a room more than when it’s flooded with natural light. It uplifts the overall aspect of the room and heightens dim spaces to provide a lighter and brighter outlook. It’s no wonder they’re a hit with top architects around the world!
Environmentally Friendly Roof Lanterns
They’re excellent energy efficiency too, providing homeowners with an exceptional U-value of 1.0 attainable, helping to save money of your home heating bills. The range of options available for Skypods are increasing due to new frame and glass colours as well an expansive range of sizes available. The Skypod range of pitched roof skylights for flat roofs ranges from from compact designs to offering larger glass areas and clean sightlines, and they’re all equally designed to be fast and easy to install.
Skypods are available in a variety of sizes so you can create a skylight that perfectly complements the individuality of your home.
Roof lanterns and skypods are suitable for a wide range of projects such as flat-roofed extensions, orangeries, new builds, kitchen-diners and garage conversions.
Skypods and roof lanterns also provide height and volume to the smallest of rooms. They’re perfect for minimalistic homes with their sleek design and simple clean lines which eliminate the need for cresting or finials.
