In this season of the year it is cold, it gets dark early and there is no doubt that we miss the sunlight and its rays that will warm and illuminate the space.
As a Mediterranean country whose people enjoy the sun most of the year, we have a strong desire to continue using the sun until the "last drop" in all seasons.
Here are some examples that will let in the light and make the most of it, even in winter.

How many times have you fantasized about a garden in the center of the house?
In a project in the north of the country that was planned by Shirley Dan, owner of an architecture, planning and design office, a garden in the center of the house overlooks it, which brings in not only natural light, but also nature in person.
The front door is wide and impressive, with a combination of wood and glass.
The entrance to the house brings visitors to an impressive patio located in the center of the house with a dwarf tree.
The ceiling of the public space is particularly high, creating a sense of height and levitation.
The chosen style is rustic, thanks to continuous work with dense wood.
This is alongside other natural materials including copper, bricks from demolition, stone tiles with ancient processing and more.

"The idea of the skylight is to take advantage of the natural lighting," explains interior designer Zvia Kazioff.
"The significance of natural lighting in residential projects is an essential part of my concept of design and planning. In this project in the Sharon area, in the attic, which was transformed from a dark warehouse into a master bedroom for the couple, the idea was to create a space inspired by a hotel suite. With the help of a window in the roof, the skylight located above the bed area brings Natural and pleasant light for the master suite. The glass cabinet and the large mirror integrated into the space also expand the light distribution and intensify it.
In another project - this time by Shlomit Zaldman, the skylight forms an important pillar of the public space. The architecture is from the creative house of Ilan Pivko, and the skylight is located in the ceiling above a space the stairs, washes the space of the stairs with its full power and illuminates the public space.

A room that speaks to the view.

"Sunrooms are another option for maximizing the sun," explains Kobi Khalifa, one of the owners of the Artpro company, which specializes in ironwork and iron developers.
"These are glass rooms that are usually located under the pergolas, and make the pergola a part of the house, thus both expanding the space and the feeling of being outside. Literally sitting at home and feeling outside. Seeing the sky, and at night the stars."
In the private home of Yanon Ben David, owner of an architecture and design office, in Moshav Netor in the Golan Heights, such a sun room was designed.
Ben David was able to create in the public space and to the right of the kitchen a sunroom, which overlooks most of its sides to the view of the Golan Heights revealed in its full power.
This sunroom serves as a dining area.
This is a special room, which "speaks" to the landscape, when the feeling of the person standing in it provides the illusion as if he is outside the house.
The exit to the back balcony is through this room.
The back balcony is completely open towards the view and this is actually the central and main balcony of the members of the house.
Giant developers and curtains
The solution that is easiest to implement in every home - large showcase windows, without blinds, with curtains to filter and soften the light.

Preference is given to a developer that starts at the floor and ends at the ceiling - huge developers.

And we returned to the most well-known and popular option of all, which is the giant developers.
Yes, yes, huge windows, preference is given to those that come from the floor and climb up to the ceiling and basically open up the space completely and bring the outside in.
Moreover, Chanel Moore, owner of a brand for curtains, explains that "nowadays, in light of the enormous popularity of the developers, most people tend to give up blinds that reduce the window and their place in maintaining privacy and filtering the light, the curtains occupy. Their advantage is that they are more airy and give more space to the natural light ".
