The slim windows, the lighting, the wall hangings, and the line-up at the island all create a slender shape.

It's all about the juxtaposition of texture (the ladder like, narrow motif) and flow. A perfect focal point, especially in white-soft yet specific.

This residence by Austin, Texas's Alterstudio — which seems to love clerestories, based on this and the next two photos — uses windows above the kitchen to bring light into the dining/living area. This use is actually more aligned with the traditional definition of a clerestory (think of the kitchen and its roof as an aisle and the living room as the main space). Note the horizontal ladder-like louvers below the window; these cut down on direct sunlight into the space. A very well thought-out design.

I love the high windows to bring in more natural light

Interior clerestory windows would open the current living room area up. It would also frame the kitchen as it does in this photo.

I like these clerestory windows... just have the window frame between them, rather than wall and molding. Would prefer square rather than rectangular, but either is OK.

Like the clerestory windows. Interesting placement where kitchen is recessed underneath. I imagine this would look strange without the soffit extending the line of the ceiling out beyond the windows?
