Upward view of a pitched timber roof structure with rows of slanted
An interior precedent for utilizing angled roof skylights and exposed timber trusses to create a rhythm of direct overhead daylighting.
- What we like about this project
- Suspended industrial pendants align precisely with the central ridge axis, echoing the linear skylight rhythm.

- Geometry
- Symmetrical upward gaze along a pitched roof centerline, featuring alternating rows of slanted skylight wells and exposed timber trusses.
- Structural guess
- Exposed timber rafters with steel tie rods and collar ties.
- Spatial scale
- Expansive double-height volume with a long perspective receding down the pitched hall.
- Lighting
- Direct bright daylight streaming through angled skylights, casting sharp linear shadows and silhouetting ceiling framing.
- Atmosphere
- Crisp, focused, and bright with high-contrast shadows from overhead daylight.
- Environmental context
- Interior hall or studio space under a daylight-optimized roof structure.
- Spatial experience
- Looking upward emphasizes the vertical volume and structural rhythm, with bright directional sky cuts contrasting against shadowed ceiling planes.
- Composition rhythm
- Strict bilateral symmetry down the roof ridge with repeating diagonal window modules.
- Style reading
- Industrial adaptive reuse or studio architecture
