We transform dark basements and trapped rooms into daylit living and working spaces with our specially developed daylight solutions. Let yourself be inspired by the various projects we have realised.

Workshop in the basement of elementary school

Workshop in the basement of elementary school

As part of the conversion of the elementary school, existing basement rooms were converted into classrooms. This raised the question of daylighting. Originally, excavations were planned on the north side to create two atriums. However, the necessary dimensioning of one atrium did not harmonize with the existing architecture of the staircase: the parapet around the atrium would have cut off almost half of the staircase. The solution was found with the mirror shafts from Heliobus. The workroom is supplied with sufficient daylight without any loss of space outside, i.e. the existing architecture can continue to be used optimally. The daylight supply via the mirror shafts could also be guaranteed more cost-effectively than by excavating the atrium.

Read a detailed news report on the project here. With voices of the construction planner, Rolf Borer, and the teacher for textile and technical design, Manuela Furrer.

Bright guest room in the basement with mirror shaft

Bright guest room in the basement with mirror shaft

The pictures show it impressively: the mirror shaft directs daylight into the room, so that the light even reaches into the hallway. Guests can now look up at the sky from the basement and watch the weather. Thanks to the mirror shaft, the guest room has gained in atmosphere and well-being and now looks much more inviting and homely.

Walkable skylight - custom made 20m long

Walkable skylight - custom made 20m long

A long skylight strip of 20 x 1 m floods the swimming hall below with daylight. Another skylight strip of 8.5 x 0.7 m was installed on one of the seating areas for a daylit fitness room. The planning and elaboration was done in cooperation with the architectural office Glasnhof. GLASSFLOOR installed the custom-made system on site.

Walkable skylights for school Töss

Walkable skylights for school Töss

Seven GLASSFLOOR are installed on the two break areas of the Töss school complex. Despite their large glass surface, the skylights meet enormous structural requirements: a point load of 2 tons per 20×20 cm and a surface load of one ton per square meter. The skylights can thus even be driven over. A slip resistance ensures that children can play safely no matter what the weather.

Fitness room in the basement full of daylight

Fitness room in the basement full of daylight

A fitness room in the basement with sauna and shower shines in daylight thanks to the mirror shaft from Heliobus®. So bright and inviting that there is no need for electric light at all. In this project, the customer wanted a full-surface slip resistance for the cover, which is why the view into the mirror module does not allow a clear view of the sky.

Light Guide in historic residential building

Light Guide in historic residential building

Light Guide Supplies several floors with daylight

Problem Statement:
Little daylight on the upper floor and in the center of the house due to a traditional Bernese cripple hip roof with a low-pitched canopy.

Idea and solution by Heliobus:
Daylight is directed from a roof opening towards the south through a vertical, mirrored shaft from the attic to the upper floor and first floor. Openings with controllable light outlets supply four different rooms with daylight & sunlight.

Light control is individually controllable
A motorized light control allows the user to control the daylight as desired, e.g. maximum daylight enters one room, dimming the unused rooms slightly.

Medical practice in the basement with daylight

Medical practice in the basement with daylight

Dermapraxis AG in Wädenswil can now use the basement rooms as fully-fledged practice rooms thanks to the large amount of daylight that falls into them via the mirror shafts. The previously dark and thus unusable rooms for dermatological purposes were equipped with four generous mirror sh afts. The daylight basement rooms now house a day clinic, an examination room, as well as a preparation room for operations and a meeting room. Thanks to the daylight in the basement, patients as well as the staff of the dermatology practice feel comfortable.

Daylight solution for St. Leonhard cycle tunnel

At the St.Leonhard-Strasse in St.Gallen, the busy intersection is to be freed from non-motorised traffic. For this purpose, a bicycle tunnel is planned under the intersection. In order to make the underground tunnel as pleasant as possible for cyclists and pedestrians, light is to be brought into the tunnel via various daylight systems. Heliobus® was consulted as a daylight expert from the very beginning in order to create the most pleasant atmosphere possible in the tunnel.

Kindergarten in the basement with daylight

Kindergarten in the basement with daylight

Thanks to sufficient daylight, the Nonnenbach school kindergarten can now also use the basement as a fully-fledged playroom. Five mirror shafts from Heliobus direct the daylight into the basement. The number of children at the Nonnenbach school in Kressbronn has been rising steadily for a few years. For this reason, another movement room and a small group room have been installed in the basement. Inside, the mirror shafts bring in daylight and sunlight; outside, the accessible light well covers of the mirror shafts blend harmoniously into the surroundings.
The children and teachers as well as those responsible in the community are thrilled.

The GAIA Hotel was faced with the challenge of offering its guests something special in the unused basement. The hotel management decided on a wellness area. Since the room was rather small, they looked for lighting that would make the room appear large and bright. They quickly arrived at daylight as a source of illumination. With several mirror shafts from Heliobus®, the room is now illuminated with daylight. The feedback from the guests about the wellness area in the middle of the city is convincing.

Full basement in Ascona with daylight

Full basement in Ascona with daylight

The basement of these exclusive houses in Ascona was completely converted into living space. With the mirror shaft from Heliobus®, the rooms are illuminated with real daylight and thus offer a very pleasant living atmosphere. The available daylight created offices, fitness rooms or guest rooms in the basement.

The built-in mirrors now also provide a view of the blue sky and the passing clouds. Ventilation of the rooms is still possible through the ventilation slits in the light well cover. In addition, sounds such as birdsong can be heard from the garden when the window is open. Thus, despite the cellar, there is a connection to the outside world.
