Project Description
In the heart of Concord, Massachusetts, a vision for a brighter, more expansive kitchen and dining area has been realized thanks to the collaborative expertise of Sunspace Design and fellow local professionals. Our home-owning clients sought to infuse their living space with natural light. Sunspace Design—renowned for crafting exquisite custom skylights and glass structures—delivered a stunning solution. This project showcases our ability to seamlessly integrate bespoke glass construction into any project.
The centerpiece of this transformation is a meticulously crafted 10’ x 17’ double-hip skylight framed in rich mahogany and clad in elegant cold rolled copper. The skylight’s design was engineered in-house and pre-assembled in our workshop to ensure a perfect fit while minimizing installation time. Utilizing high-performance Solarban 70 argon gas-filled insulated glass, the Sunspace team achieved exceptional thermal performance and optimal light transmission to provide a comfortable and luminous environment. We further enhanced the home’s existing Velux skylights with custom copper cladding to ensure a cohesive aesthetic. The copper exterior adds a touch of timeless elegance while the insulated glass secures year-round comfort.
As always, we believe in the value of collaboration. This project demonstrates that value. By working closely with Richard Gerace, a skilled general contractor, and Céline Riard of CHIC Redesign, we were able to create a stunning living space for our clients. The detailed craftsmanship—from the mortise and tenon joinery to the precise installation of the glazing system—reflects our commitment to quality and the attention to detail our reputation is built upon.
We understand that a skylight is more than just a source of light. Each unit is an opportunity to create a transformative, space-redefining portal to the skies above. Whether you’re a homeowner looking for a sun-drenched interior or a professional aiming to integrate innovative glass solutions into your projects, we’re here to help.
