Flat Window or Cupula on Flat Roof Extension?

Featured Replies

I've eventually started my extension in Edinburgh of my 1930s detached bungalow, the wall between my existing living room and Dining room will be removed, as wil the external wall and a relatively large extension will be added to create an open plan kitchen/dining/living space.

The new extension section will be approx. 10m x 5.5m, there will be a flat roof on this section with 7.5m sliding doors and two 2m x1m skylights. I had intended having flat glass windows on the roof but both the builder and roofer have both, separately, recommended that I get Cupula windows instead as they will be easier to keep clean and also give an illusion of additional head-height. 

Has anyone had any experience of Cupulas v flat windows? - If so, what would you recommend and why?

Many thanks in advance.
