Porch skylight question?

[junglejim]

We’ve just had joiners framing out for our porch overhang. We wanted to include a glazed section to let light into the window below so they’ve left a gap and also reinforced above with timber framing.

 

 I’m looking for suggestions on how we could glaze this… I’m thinking of a couple of rafters to create 2 rectangular sections and glaze in there (slightly different from architects impression) but I’m unsure about how to go about framing and flashing a glazing unit. Also whether the framing above is necessary as we were going to batten, board and render that section but it’s now protruding and would seem to complicate the airflow too… any ideas and advice welcome as always.

 

 Thank you
