A mirror-clad light tunnel in the children’s bathroom fills this
internal room with natural daylight. The bathroom is within
the centre of the house, therefore would usually be a dark
space, however, the space above the bath is opened drawing
light down from the skylight via a series of angled mirrors. At
night the mirrors reflect LED lights which are set within the
tunnel.
It was important to create close communication with the
semi-detached neighbours as they would be affected by a
demolition project. XUL presented the project to the local
community in its early stages which proved effective in
dealing with queries and helped to gain planning permission
from Barnet Council with minimum objections.
