Master the technical detailing of roof windows

Daylight provision is a key aspect of building design, regardless of the size or functionality of the building in question. The amount of daylight provided can have a significant impact, not only on the aesthetics and functionality of a space but also on the health and well-being of its occupants.

VELUX roof windows have been bringing daylight and fresh air into buildings around the world for more than 80 years. The technical implementation of each VELUX solution follows simple rules and principles proven over the years. Within the VELUX CAD tutorial videos, we guide you through the software interface, as well as the subtleties of the implementation that will help you perform the needed adjustments on a project level, for an effective and smooth application of VELUX products on-site.
