About this Project
The West Hollow Middle School in Melville, NY features two impressive skylights by Crystal Structures in its beautiful atrium. The L-shaped skylights cap off the atrium space, allowing natural light to flood the indoor garden and student gathering area below. Rain or shine, students can gaze up at the skies through these uniquely configured ridgelites.
Measuring 47 feet long by 18 feet across each, the nested skylights incorporate both hips and valleys with gabled ends into their design. Sunshine Designs handled the installation of these statement pieces.
