A roof lantern is one of the most effective ways to bring natural light into your home. Whether you are upgrading an existing flat roof extension or planning a new living space, a well-designed roof lantern adds brightness, height and a real sense of luxury.
At Future Windows, we supply stylish aluminium roof lanterns for homeowners, builders and trade customers in Birmingham and across the UK. Designed to maximise daylight while maintaining a sleek architectural appearance, our roof lanterns are ideal for modern extensions, kitchen diners, orangeries and open-plan family rooms.
A roof lantern changes more than the look of a room. It changes how the room feels. By drawing daylight down from above, it can make a darker space feel larger, brighter and more welcoming throughout the day.
Roof lanterns are especially popular in:-
• Flat roof extensions
• Kitchen extensions
• Dining spaces
• Orangery-style rooms
• Contemporary renovations
• New-build projects
The Korniche roof lantern is designed with narrow sightlines and clean internal detailing to maximise the glazed area and create broader views of the sky above.
Korniche uses die-cast aluminium components engineered for accuracy, weather resistance, thermal retention and low maintenance. Korniche roof lanterns are designed to be among the strongest and stiffest on the market.
Korniche roof lanterns are fully thermally broken to reduce heat transfer. Our glazing options have U-values from 1.2 down to 1.0 depending on the glass specification.
A premium roof lantern should look refined from every angle, with no visible fixings, seamless joints and sculpted end caps to maintain clean aesthetics inside and out.
A roof lantern is often the centrepiece of a new extension. It draws the eye upward, adds architectural interest and helps create the bright, airy atmosphere that many homeowners want from an open-plan space.
Roof lanterns need to fit the architecture of the room. Korniche offers bespoke sizes up to 6m x 4m, fixed 25-degree pitch options with stock RAL colours including white, grey and black, dual-colour options and bespoke RAL/BS colours.
Natural light is important, but so is comfort. Your roof lantern can be tailored not only for appearance, but also for privacy, solar gain and maintenance preferences.
