The Importance of Natural Light When Planning a Home Addition

August 29, 2024

When planning a home addition, one critical aspect that significantly affects the ambiance and functionality of your new space is natural light. Its role transcends just illuminating spaces during the daytime—natural light influences the aesthetic appeal, energy efficiency, and overall well-being of the occupants. Based in Wayne, PA, Cottage Industries, Inc. understands the pivotal role of natural light in any home addition project and emphasizes incorporating strategies to maximize its benefits while minimizing any potential daylighting problems.
