Thank you for your enquiry, the skylights are velux windows, from memory they were around 118cms wide. Sorry not to be more helpful but the sizes need to be specific to your particular space.

Nice size they will make the space, make sure they are units sealed into frames and not just stepped glass also they need to be silicone sealed and not two part or hot melt as the ultra violet light will break down the unit very quickly Good luck

I have three of these in a loft--side-by-side and quite large. Besides the summer sun baking in, my furniture was beginning to fade. The cost of blinds was pretty steep, so I opted to use light-cream drapery panels with a rod pocket sewn into both ends and thin tension rods to hold them taut. Works like a charm! I still have plenty of light--a softer, diffused light. And the light fabric reflects most of the heat. Plus, the UV damage has stopped. Another bonus--the fabric acts as an insulator in winter so there's much less radiant cold off the glass. A win-win, and the whole arrangement cost less than $100.

We will have a 2.8m ceiling and Westin have advised their Stratus ceiling extractor would work - in fact they don't set a height limit just say it should be set at the highest point in the room. Might work for you? We also have two skylights but our other one runs the other way so as to best allow light into the internal seating area (where your utility is) - so ours won't match at all! if you want symmetry though, why not push your other one over to the side as well- wouldmake lighting the dining table easier!

Hi. This is an interesting design question. I wonder why no one's commented on this. This seems like a lot of roof lights. You'll get good daylight, but the space could over-heat in summer and lose heat in winter through them. First thing I wondered is why you have a full-width skylight(s) just behind the windows at the back. I assumed there's a fully glazed foldable screen and glazed double door to the garden/decking. You are making the original house deeper, so if you want to have the similar daylight level at the back of this space (living /dining/kitchen?), then you'd put full width skylight at the line of original house. The full-width roof light is not used efficiently at the current position unless you want to make the front bright for other reasons (though I don't know which direction is facing south). Having said that, your option 1 or 2 without (or smaller) skylght behind the foldable screen might be good enough. For the 'line of first floor flat above', if it's the position of the wall, then there might be a beam going across to hold it. As there is no column there on the plan, the beam might pass just under your roof light if you don't align them. At roof light manufacturer's web site you'll find standard sizes they produce in their brochure. Some roof lights are for sloped roofs and some are for flat roofs, so you have to choose a suitable product depending on the angle of your roof.
