What material has been used o the ceiling? What colour is it? Thank you - Great room, we are considering doing a similar raised ceiling, asked architect about likely hood of echoing and he's suggesting we line ceiling - I presume he means something like this -
Wondering if the people who live here have any comments - do you have echoing?, has this panelling helped? »
Amitzi Architects In a sense, all windows here are custom-made. But these clerestory windows are just frameless glass plates which were inserted into U-profiles that are hidden in the concrete ceiling.
This clerestory window, which wraps a corner of a living area in a fairly light and modern residence, gives the impression that the ceiling/roof floats above the walls. The extension of the ceiling beyond the plane of the walls means that the light coming in via the clerestories is indirect, giving the room plenty of light without too much heat or glare.
