Choosing the right roof balcony or roof terrace size for your space
The starting point for choosing a roof balcony or roof terrace is finding out which size and configuration suits your room’s size and layout. A larger loft or open-plan top floor can benefit from a combination of multiple roof balcony windows or sloped roof windows for maximum light and headroom. Smaller rooms still gain the same bright, airy feel with more compact designs.
For the best effect, we recommend choosing a roof window solution that equals to about 15-20% of the room’s floor area.
