The basement is a great place to live

Thanks to innovative daylighting solutions from Heliobus®, the basement of this private residence in Switzerland can be used as a bright, high-quality living and workspace.

By combining walk-on Glassfloor® skylights with custom-made Heliobus® Spiegelschacht® systems, an effective daylighting solution was created for the basement. Natural light is directed into the rooms below, creating a significantly friendlier, more open, and cozier atmosphere.

The walk-on skylights also offer a view of the outdoors and strengthen the connection to the outside world. As a result, the lower level no longer feels like a traditional basement, but rather like a fully-fledged living space with the same quality as a ground-floor room.

The result is a striking demonstration of how well-thought-out Daylight Engineering, high-quality materials, and architectural design can work together to transform previously underutilized spaces into exceptional living areas. Click the Video to get a glimpse of the completed project.
