Improvements of indoor living environment
Improvements of indoor living environment The Birch House
The newly implemented solution for the Birch home does not advertise big changes but offers an interior space with new qualities and healthy indoor climate.
New skylights which have been installed in the house , provide the interior with optimal levels of daylights. Skylights are great source of extra light, let in twice as much light as vertical windows and opening skylights contribute to a home’s natural ventilation. Kitchen and Breakfast Room Two skylights have been installed and provide the kitchen and the breakfast room with beautiful natural light, eliminating the need for electrical lighting during the daytime. Daylight and Fresh Air
Today we spend 90% of our time indoors in artificially created environments with artificial lighting, ventilation, heating and cooling. These systems which separate us from the natural environment and create poor air quality, inadequate levels of daylight, thermal discomfort, etc, can contribute to increasing health problems. To improve the well being of families and living conditions, we strive to incorporate abundant natural light, fresh air ventilation, and reduced energy requirements in new home designs.
Healthy indoor climate, maximum daylight and ventilation are preconditions to ensure optimal indoor comfort and minimal energy consumption consistent with the standards of the future. Kitchen before skylights installation

Great consideration has to be given to the well-being of the inhabitants in the new house. To optimize daylight conditions and help create spatial variation, roof windows will be placed in the roof on different heights, depending on the roof slope and the dimensions of the room, to bring daylight deep into the interior.

The Sun Tunnel is an ideal solution for bringing natural light into rooms without vertical windows which rely on electrical lighting.
Indoor Climate challenge is that we spend 90% of our time indoors, but less than 30% of the building mass contributes to or provides a healthy indoor climate. We humans need fresh air and daylight when we are indoors. It has a positive effect on our health and well-being, as well as our ability to learn. Sun Tunnel replaces artificial lighting
