Evening all
I’m in the process of a conversion and have a stairwell that receives virtually no natural light, buildings listed and planners wouldn’t allow an extra rooflight or sun tube.
However several of the rooms opening onto the stair well are well lit and whilst borrowed lights are not generally something used these days , in this instance seem an obvious choice. Hopefully negating the need for artifical light in day light hours which would otherwise no doubt end up being on all day.
House will for most part only be occupied by one couple and so disturbance from others using lights on stairs at night won’t be an issue very often.
Any thoughts on this and any design ideas to make them a bit of a feature?
many thanks phil
