Your bedroom is one of the most important spaces in your home and should serve as a comfortable and inviting haven. It’s where you get ready in the morning and unwind at night. Aside from using furniture and decor, skylights are your secret weapon to transforming your bedroom into your ideal space.

In this blog, we’ll explore how skylights can elevate your bedroom and increase the value of your property. 

Increased Natural Light

Opening up your ceiling with a skylight will give your bedroom more space, making it appear larger from all angles without compromising your privacy or wall space. It’s the perfect alternative to harsh overhead lighting, elevating the aesthetic of your space by giving it a warm and inviting atmosphere. This added light can also highlight certain architectural features of your room.

We offer a range of solar blinds for Keylite and INFINITI roof windows to help you control natural light levels throughout the day. These skylights also block out 99% of UV light, protecting you and your furnishings from its harmful effects.

Improved Sleep Quality

Adding an extra natural light source to your bedroom will impact your circadian rhythm — the brain’s 24-hour clock that regulates cycles like sleep patterns, appetite and alertness throughout the day by responding to light changes in our environment. Greater exposure to sunlight aligns your internal body clock with your external environment, making you more alert and awake during the day and ready to sleep at night. 

Positive Well-Being

A recent study led by Monash University revealed that natural light exposure can significantly improve a person’s mood and decrease depressive symptoms, stress and insomnia. This is because sunlight naturally increases the serotonin your brain produces. 

Adding sunlight to your bedroom will also increase your Vitamin D levels. This vitamin is essential for bone development and muscle strength as it helps your body absorb calcium when eating. Plus, skylights can ease eye strain symptoms, often caused by a lack of natural light. These symptoms include watery eyes, blurred vision, headaches, difficulty concentrating and neck, shoulder and back pain.

Energy Efficiency

Skylights replace artificial lighting during the day with natural sources, considerably lowering your electricity bills and carbon footprint. Keylite and INFINITI products have double glazing designed to minimise heat gain during the summer and heat loss during the winter, reducing the need for air conditioning and heating services.

Increased Ventilation

Opening skylights are an easy way to combat humidity and prevent mould growth in your bedroom. Regular ventilation helps remove warm air trapped at the top of your ceiling and uses natural light to dry up damp environments. This cost-effective practice will significantly improve your space’s air circulation and quality.
