Winner

sia skylight showroom
of the year
Diamond Skylights
Heidelberg, VIC

Diamond Skylights’ newly renovated premises is
centrally located on busy Bell Street, a short drive from
Melbourne’s CBD, with readily available parking. A full
width window display, and illuminated overhead sign
provide an outstanding street presence. Customers
enter through double doors to a visually inviting
showroom of sweeping bulkheads and polished
concrete floors.
Over 30 skylight displays and eight booths showcase a
range of SOLATUBE and VELUX products. The central
atrium is attractively designed to maximize light and
ventilation in the heart of the building, connecting the
open plan office with the showroom. The architectural
benefits of natural light provided by the product range
is self evident.

JUDGES’ COMMENTS
The large number of displayed working skylights is
impressive in this well designed space. The layout
assists customers to work through the selection
process step by step and is a great showcase of the
products.
