byI have lived and stayed in a variety of different types of housing. This includes rural, urban and suburban homes in various parts of the country. It includes big houses, small houses and apartments. And what I find is that I’m comfortable in all types of different homes but that there must be decen natural sunlight in whatever place I’m staying in for me to like it.
I’m lucky because the place that I’m in now gets great sun all throughout the day and that’s really special in a place as foggy as San Francisco. One of the major reasons that I haven’t thought seriously about moving to a new apartment is because there aren’t too many places in my price range here that get great natural sunlight.
I was recently daydreaming about getting even better sunlight as I looked through design photos of skylights. I’ve got someone above me in the apartment here so I’m not going to be getting a skylight anytime soon but I do definitely like them. Bathrooms and kitchens in particular are places that I think should have skylights.
What do you think? Do you like skylights and big windows or are you a drawn-curtains kind of person?

DEFINITELY lots of light. Our apartment has NO curtains or window treatments and lots of windows. That may change since a building is going up nearby so we may need to add drapes for one room.
