January 4, 20215 yr We're currently redesigning bedrooms and looking to incorporate rooflights into vaulted ceilings. The most economical option is for large windows (1340x1140) which we are planning for, but almost everything I see on Pinterest has more smaller rooflights than fewer large ones. Is there any particular reason why that's the case? Bedrooms each have approximately 14m2 floorspace and 2.4m2 of windows (1200x2000). Thanks.
January 4, 20215 yr I would go with the larger ones. Easier for fitting and operating blinds, external shutters, auto opening etc.

January 4, 20215 yr Smaller ones are better for differing amounts of airflow, larger ones better for uninterrupted views and more light.
