Kleine dakkapel

A small dormer — often with a single window frame — is mainly used in areas sensitive to aesthetic review (welstand), or where only one extra window is needed for daylight or an escape route.

Applications

A small dormer above a stairwell provides light onto the landing. Above a small room or bathroom, a single window is often sufficient. In historical buildings, a narrow dormer frequently fits better than a wide one.

Voordelen
  • Limited impact on the existing roof plane
  • Often easier to get approved by the aesthetic review board
  • Lower costs
Nadelen
  • More limited addition to headroom and floor space
  • Only one window frame, meaning more limited ventilation options
