SUNROOOF Blog: The art of life
under the open sky

Ever walked into a space and just felt good?

Like the light was hugging you. The mood felt calm. Everything looked better—even you?

Yeah. That’s not an accident. That’s what happens when lighting works with you, not against you. And in 2025, we’re way past boring bulbs and blinding white LEDs.

We’re in the era of artificial lighting in interior design—and it’s finally catching up with how humans actually live, work, and vibe.

Welcome to SUNROOOF’s world—where the sun doesn’t set just because you're indoors.

Skylights: From Fancy Feature to Feel-Good Essential

Let’s be honest, skylights used to scream luxury. Something you’d see in a dreamy Pinterest bathroom or a hillside villa. But now? They’re becoming something else.

Essential because people are indoors. A lot. Around 90% of our lives, according to Harvard Health. And most of that time? We’re under lighting that doesn’t feel good.

That’s why homeowners are making a shift. From standard lighting to artificial natural light. It’s not about fancy tech. It’s about feeling human again.

Imagine waking up to soft, sunrise-like light—even in a windowless room. Or having your bathroom glow like mid-morning daylight. That’s the magic of sunlight simulation lighting. No harsh glares. No cold vibes. Just natural light inside the house. Even if there's no actual sun.

Your Home, But Better

Let’s take a walk through your space.

Living room? Warm, welcoming light that shifts throughout the day. Bedroom? A gentle glow that winds down with you. Kitchen? Bright, natural tones that make everything feel fresh.

This isn’t just lighting. It’s living better.

And SUNROOOF’s secret sauce? A combo of German engineering and AI magic. It doesn’t just light your space—it learns it. replicating daylight from sunrise to sunset so your rhythm stays in sync. Learn about the wellness benefits of SUNROOOF’s natural light tech and yes, it helps with energy savings too. Less need for multiple lights. More daylight-inspired efficiency.

But What About Offices, Retail, and Workspaces?

Oh, we’re just getting started. Think about your office. That dull, washed-out light that drains your brain by 2 PM?

Now flip that. Imagine stepping into a workspace that feels open. Sunny. Inviting. Even with no windows.

That’s the power of artificial lighting in interior design done right.

In offices, it boosts focus and reduces eye strain. In retail stores, it makes products pop and customers stay longer. In hospitals? Patients feel calmer. Even healing is faster when the lighting supports the body’s natural rhythms, and yes, SUNROOOF’s system works across all these spaces. Hospitals, malls, salons, and cafés. Wherever people spend time indoors, SUNROOOF brings the outdoors in.

Why SUNROOOF Feels Different (Because It Is)

Let’s keep it real. Smart bulbs and LED strips are everywhere now. But they’re not sunlight.

SUNROOOF is different. It’s not trying to be cool lighting. It’s trying to be real.

Real-like “your living room feels like an open courtyard” real. Or “Your boardroom suddenly has morning energy,” real.

It’s not just about brightness. It’s about experience.

With AI-controlled sunlight simulation lighting, your rooms shift with the time of day. Morning glow, midday energy, evening warmth—it’s all there. And it just… works.

Ever been in a room that just feels... off? The lighting’s too harsh, too dim, or too artificial. It messes with your mood, makes work harder, and just drains you. But what if you could have sunlight indoors—anywhere, anytime?

That’s what we do at SUNROOOF. We bring the outdoors inside. No big windows needed. No skylights cut into the roof. Just beautifully designed sunlight simulation lighting that mimics the real thing. And trust us—it makes a difference.

Why Natural Light Matters Indoors

Think about how you feel on a bright, sunny day. Awake. Energized. Motivated. Now, think about a gloomy, gray one. Not the same, right?

That’s because natural light controls everything. Our sleep cycles. Our focus. Even our emotions. But with most of us spending 90% of our time indoors, we miss out on that daily dose of sunshine.

We wanted to fix that. Natural lighting for interiors isn’t just about making a space look better. It’s about making people feel better too.

The Science Behind Sunlight Simulation Lighting

Okay, so how does it work? Simple. Our virtual skylights use smart LEDs, optics, and AI to recreate real daylight. Morning light? Cool and crisp. Afternoon sun? Warm and golden. Evening glow? Soft and cosy.

It adjusts automatically, just like the real thing. No flickering. No weird blue tint. Just smooth, natural light that moves with your day.

And here’s the best part: You don’t need a single window.

How It Changes Your Space

Homes: More Than Just Lighting

Ever walked into a room that felt dark, even with the lights on? That’s because artificial light doesn’t behave like the sun. It’s flat. Lifeless. But with sunlight simulation lighting, rooms feel open. Air. Alive.

Offices: Productivity On Another Level

Bad lighting makes you tired. Science proves it. Fluorescent lights drain focus. Dim spaces make you sluggish.

In workspaces, natural lighting for interiors improves energy levels, keeps your eyes from straining, and boosts productivity. And if you’re working late? No more blue-light headaches. Just smooth, sunlike transitions that keep your brain on track.

Hotels, Restaurants & Spas: Mood Matters

First impressions? Everything. When people walk into a space, lighting sets the tone. Cozy. Welcoming. Luxurious.

Why Choose Sunlight Simulation Over Traditional Lighting?

You might be thinking, “Can’t I just install a skylight?” Sure. But not every space allows it. And even if it does, what about nighttime? What about rainy days?

Sunlight simulation lighting gives you sunlight, no matter the weather. No construction. No complicated installation. Just pure, natural-feeling light whenever you need it.

And did we mention energy savings? These smart systems adjust automatically, so you use light only when and where you need it.

Light matters. And in today’s built environments, it’s not just about turning a bulb on or off. People want natural light inside their homes and workspaces, but not every space gets enough. That’s where innovations like skylights for homes step in, offering a solution that goes beyond basic lighting and adds mood, balance, and wellness to interior spaces.

Traditional skylights, however, come with limitations. They need open roofs, glass cuts, and proper waterproofing—and they can’t be installed everywhere. This makes them unsuitable for many apartments or lower-floor buildings. But lighting technology has moved ahead. Enter SUNROOOF.

Reimagining Light With SUNROOOF’s Artificial Skylight Technology

SUNROOOF is not a typical skylight. In fact, it's not a skylight in the traditional sense at all. It’s a patented lighting system, engineered in Germany, that recreates the look and feel of sunlight—right inside your room. We’re talking about artificial skylight, an Indian innovation that delivers a sky-like glow from your ceiling. No glass, no construction mess, no need to cut through the roof. Just beautiful daylight, where you thought it wasn’t possible.

The system uses high-end LEDs, specialised optics, and smart colour-shifting software to mimic sunlight as it changes throughout the day. The light you get in the morning is soft and warm. By afternoon, it turns crisp and energising. As the day winds down, it dims gently into an amber hue. All this happens automatically, unless you want to control it yourself through a remote or mobile app.

Residential Applications: More Than Just Bright Rooms

If you're thinking of traditional skylights for a house, you’re likely picturing a rectangular hole in the ceiling with glass panels. But not all houses—or budgets—can accommodate those. SUNROOOF was designed to offer that same feeling of openness and daylight without the architectural hassle.

It’s perfect for city apartments where sunlight is limited or blocked. Bathrooms, kitchens, basements, hallways—SUNROOOF systems turn even the darkest corners into bright, sun-washed spaces. So, yes, you can still enjoy the emotional and visual benefits of daylight without knocking down any walls or punching holes in your ceiling.

In terms of aesthetics, SUNROOOF adds more than light. The illusion of a skylight elevates your space. A plain ceiling becomes dynamic. You walk in and it feels like there’s sky overhead. That’s the power of our system, and it’s what makes our skylights for home truly different from anything else in the market.

Commercial Use: Functionality Meets Emotion

In the commercial world, lighting influences not just how a space looks but also how people behave in it. Offices, salons, retail stores, cafés—all these environments benefit from a lighting system that supports both mood and productivity.

We’ve seen firsthand how replacing old, flickering lights with our system dramatically improves the look and performance of a workspace. Especially in work-from-home setups or enclosed meeting rooms, the difference is real. People stay focused longer. Eye strain goes down. And the atmosphere? Totally changes.

Most importantly, roof skylights for home systems don’t work for most commercial buildings. They can’t be retrofitted without structural intervention. But SUNROOOF can be installed easily on any RCC ceiling without modifying the structure. That’s the beauty of smart design.

Office Lighting for Today’s Needs

Let’s talk about home offices and workspaces. If you’re working long hours indoors, your environment needs to support your rhythm. Harsh LED panels are common, but they’re not natural. They disrupt circadian cycles. SUNROOOF’s artificial skylight India solution is built to follow your biological clock. It helps your brain believe it’s daytime when it needs to focus—and wind down when it doesn’t.

Many of our clients report better focus and less fatigue after switching. Some say they sleep better. That’s the effect of human-first lighting. It’s not just about what you see; it’s about how your body feels in that space.

Why People Choose SUNROOOF Over Traditional Skylights

Here’s the truth—skylights for homes are a beautiful idea. But they’re hard to pull off, especially in Indian homes. Not every roof is accessible. Not every building allows cuts. And even if you can install a skylight, there’s always the risk of heat, dust, and leaks.

With SUNROOOF, you avoid all of that. The installation is clean, quick, and fits into your RCC ceiling before the POP stage. The system uses just 15–30 watts per panel and can run 24/7 with low energy consumption—comparable to two LED bulbs.

Also, it works great with solar-powered homes. So you’re not just saving energy. You’re also being future-ready.

Real Installations, Real Impact

SUNROOOF isn’t theory. We’ve already installed it in hundreds of homes and spaces. From Shilpa Shetty’s residence to Goodearth’s projects to stylish apartments across NCR, Mumbai, and beyond.

While traditional skylights for houses need to be designed around architecture, SUNROOOF adapts to your existing layout. Each panel is custom-sized. It doesn’t interfere with your interiors. And the light console lasts over 80,000 hours—12–15 years of performance, with little to no maintenance.

Cost, Warranty, and Technical Details

Each panel is 1 ft 4 inches x 4 ft and costs between ₹35,000 and ₹45,000, depending on the finish and design you choose. The entire system includes wooden rafters, drivers, and automation and comes with a 5-year guarantee.

It's worth noting that roof skylights for homes may offer natural light, but they come with no such support system. SUNROOOF is a complete package—and it’s backed by a dedicated design, delivery, and aftercare team.

Final Thoughts

Today, lighting isn’t just about visibility. It’s about wellness, emotion, and design. And with SUNROOOF, you get all of it—without structural compromise, without high power bills, and without sacrificing comfort.

Whether you’re considering skylights for your house, exploring roof skylights for your home, or searching for the best artificial skylight India option, SUNROOOF delivers a new standard in modern indoor lighting.

Let’s talk about something we all need but don’t really think about.

Light.

Yep, the way you light up your home office can change everything. Your mood. Your focus. Even your energy levels. And guess what? Most people get it wrong.

We’ve all been there—sitting in a room with bad lighting, feeling sluggish, maybe even getting a headache. It's not just annoying. It's messing with your work. That’s why we at SUNROOOF are here to fix it.

Why Your Home Office Needs the Right Light

Picture this: You wake up, grab your coffee, and sit at your desk. But something feels off. The room’s either too bright, too dim, or just weirdly shadowy. You rub your eyes and stretch a little. Maybe even think about going back to bed.

That’s the power of bad lighting. It drains you.

Now, flip the script. Imagine stepping into your home office, and it feels... right. Soft, natural-looking light surrounds you. Your brain wakes up. You feel sharp, focused, and ready to go.

That’s what the right home office lighting solutions do. And we know exactly how to make it happen.

LED Lights: The Game-Changer

Forget old-school bulbs. LEDs are where it’s at.
They last forever, use way less power, and don’t heat up your space like a tiny sun.

More importantly? They’re adjustable. Bright when you need them. Softer when the day winds down. Perfect for home office setups.

Here’s a thought — ever notice how sunlight changes throughout the day?
Morning light feels fresh and cool. Evening light? Warm and cosy.

Your lighting should do the same. Artificial lighting in interior design has come a long way. With LEDs, you can mimic natural light patterns. Keeps your body clock happy. Keeps you productive.

The Secret is layered lighting

One light source? Rookie mistake.
You need layers.

Think of your workspace like a movie set. Every great scene has layers of light making things pop. Here’s the breakdown:

• Task Lighting—That’s your focused light. The desk lamp. The reading light. The one that makes sure you don’t squint at your screen.
• Ambient Lighting—The general glow that fills your office. No harsh shadows, no eye strain. Just good vibes.
• Accent Lighting—This is the fun part. A strip of LED lights behind your monitor. A soft glow on your bookshelves. It’s what turns a boring office into a space you actually enjoy.

Mix these three? Boom. You’ve got a setup that looks and feels amazing.

Natural Light vs. Artificial Light: Finding the Sweet Spot

Let’s be real — nothing beats natural sunlight. It boosts your mood, helps regulate your sleep cycle, and makes everything look better (yes, even your Zoom face). But let’s also be real about home offices: not every space is blessed with big windows and endless sunshine.

That’s where smart, artificial lighting steps in — not to replace sunlight but to recreate it.

At SUNROOOF, we’ve cracked the code. Our lighting solutions are designed to simulate natural daylight — not just in brightness, but in behaviour. Think of it like sunlight that shows up exactly when and where you need it:

• Stuck in a basement? No windows? No problem.
• Working late and missing the sunset? We got you.
• Need consistent lighting no matter the weather outside? Done.

Thanks to our virtual skylights and advanced LED systems, your space gets the same benefits as natural light — minus the limitations. It's all about creating an environment that feels real, refreshing, and right.

Because let’s face it — the best kind of artificial light is the one that doesn’t feel artificial at all.

Light Temperature Matters

Cool light or warm light? Trick question. You need both — but at the right times.

At SUNROOOF, we’ve got this down to a science.
Our lighting system changes throughout the day to replicate the natural progression of sunlight:

• It starts warm in the morning, helping you ease into the day.
• As the day progresses, it becomes brighter and more energising, keeping you alert and focused.
• In the evening, it gradually transitions back to warmer tones, helping you wind down naturally.

This dynamic shift mimics how real daylight behaves — creating a lighting experience that supports your mood, rhythm, and productivity, no matter where your home office is.

Your eyes (and your brain) will seriously thank you.

The Smart Office Setup

Imagine walking into your home office and your lighting just knowing what you need.
No switches. No second-guessing. Just light that works with you — not against you.

With SUNROOOF, that’s already a reality.

Our lighting system is built to be smart, seamless, and completely in sync with your day. It adjusts throughout the day to replicate natural sunlight indoors — giving you a healthier, more productive workspace.

Here's how it works:

• ☀️ Morning: Warmer tones to ease you into the day
• 🌞 Afternoon: Brighter, energizing light to keep you focused and sharp
• 🌇 Evening: Gradually shifts back to warm tones, helping you wind down

All of this is automated but fully customisable too—controlled with a simple app where you can:

• Set schedules
• Adjust brightness
• Personalize the experience to match your workflow

Need a midday energy boost? Switch to cool white.
Trying to transition into evening mode? Shift to warmer hues.

At SUNROOOF, we’re all about lighting that’s not just smart — it’s intuitive, human-centric, and beautifully natural.
Because great lighting shouldn’t be something you think about. It should just happen.

Ever think about how much time you spend indoors?

Probably not. But it’s a lot—around 90% of our lives, give or take. And for years, lighting was just.  lighting. Flip a switch, the bulb turns on, and that’s that.

Not anymore. Lighting has evolved. It’s not just about visibility; it’s about mood, energy, and even our health. At SUNROOOF, we’ve seen how the right lighting can shift focus, enhance relaxation, and even improve sleep. It’s not magic—it’s science.

Light and the Body: More Than Just Brightness

Light affects us more than we realise. Our bodies respond to light cues every day, regulating energy levels, focus, and sleep.

Take melatonin, for example. That’s the hormone that tells you when to sleep. The National Institute of Health found that exposure to different types of light impacts melatonin production. More blue light? You stay alert. Warmer light? Your body starts winding down. Makes sense, right?

The problem? Modern life doesn’t exactly sync up with nature. We wake up before the sun. We work in buildings that barely see daylight. Our bodies miss those natural light signals. That’s where SUNROOOF steps in.

Bringing Natural Light Indoors

Imagine waking up to light that mimics the crisp, cool morning sun, helping you feel naturally awake. Then, as the day winds down, the glow shifts—soft, warm, and calming. It’s more than just lighting; it’s an experience.

That’s the power of today’s smart lighting technology. Our advanced LED systems can replicate natural daylight with incredible precision. They shift in color, intensity, and even angle, just like the sun does. Some even sync up with real-time outdoor light conditions. Your home or office responding to the actual sun—even if you're nowhere near a window.

How Smart Lighting Transforms Spaces

At SUNROOOF, we’ve helped transform countless spaces. The right lighting can change everything.

Living Spaces

A single overhead light can make a room feel harsh and uninviting. But with layered lighting—ambient, task, and accent—you can create different moods throughout the day. Soft, indirect lighting eliminates shadows and enhances comfort.

Kitchens & Bathrooms

Ever tried cooking or getting ready under bad lighting? It’s frustrating. Our lighting solutions provide the perfect balance—bright enough for precision tasks, but natural and comfortable to the eye.

Basements & Interior Rooms

Windowless spaces don’t have to feel dark and lifeless. With simulated sunlight, basements become inviting, productive spaces instead of forgotten storage zones.

‍

The Commercial Impact: More Than Just Aesthetics

Smart lighting isn’t just for homes. Businesses are seeing massive benefits, too.

Office Spaces

Companies that switch to adaptive lighting report fewer sick days and better employee focus. That dreaded afternoon slump? Less of an issue when lighting shifts to maintain energy levels.

Retail Stores

Lighting affects how people shop. The right setup guides customers, highlights products, and keeps them engaged. A well-lit store makes a big difference in sales and customer experience.

Healthcare Facilities

Hospitals with lighting that mimics natural rhythms see better patient recovery times. Medical staff also report improved focus during long shifts. The right lighting supports both healing and productivity.

Why Lighting Feels Like Magic

There’s something almost emotional about lighting. It can completely transform a space—and how we feel in it.

✅ Lift Seasonal Affective Disorder (goodbye, winter blues)
✅ Keep the brain sharp without causing eye strain
✅ Make windowless spaces feel connected to the outdoors

Lighting isn’t just functional. It’s personal.

The Future of Lighting: What’s Next?

We’re just getting started. Smart lighting is evolving fast.

🌞 Biodynamic Lighting shifts not just brightness, but composition throughout the day—just like the sun.

Humans have been attempting to use light for millennia. Architectural history has been influenced by the quest for illumination, from Roman courtyards and Egyptian light wells to Japanese paper walls that are made to catch every ray of sunlight. Since people now spend up to 90% of their time indoors, this search has progressed beyond merely looking for sunlight. Instead, we now use sophisticated artificial lighting in interior design to replicate natural light. At SUNROOOF, we incorporate advance lighting solutions that do more than just light up areas; they also improve wellbeing, mimic the cycles of natural daylight, and create immersive experiences.

The Human Light Connection

The relationship between humans and light is deeply rooted in our biological and psychological makeup. Natural light regulates our circadian rhythms, influences our mood, and shapes our perception of space. As urbanisation continues to push human activity indoors, the challenge of maintaining this vital connection to natural light patterns has become increasingly significant. This is where artificial lighting in interior design plays a pivotal role, offering solutions that not only illuminate spaces but also simulate the dynamic qualities of natural light. Human-centric lighting takes this a step further by adapting brightness and color temperature to align with natural circadian rhythms, enhancing comfort and well-being in indoor environments.

Decoding Natural Light for Interior Spaces

Modern artificial lighting technology has evolved to replicate the subtle variations and qualities of natural light with remarkable precision. These advanced systems can adjust colour temperature and intensity throughout the day, mimicking the natural progression of sunlight. For instance, in residential spaces, smart lighting systems can transition from the cool, energising light of morning to the warm, relaxing tones of the evening, supporting natural circadian rhythms and promoting well-being.

Technical Innovations in Lighting Design

Recent technological advances have introduced sophisticated LED systems capable of producing a wide spectrum of light colours and intensities. These systems can be programmed to respond to natural light levels, automatically adjusting their output to maintain optimal illumination while conserving energy. The integration of artificial lighting in interior design now extends beyond simple on/off functionality to include dynamic, responsive systems that adapt to user needs and environmental conditions.

Applications Across Different Environments

Residential Spaces: Creating Comfort and Connection

In residential settings, artificial lighting plays a crucial role in creating comfortable, welcoming environments that support various activities and emotional states. The application of artificial natural light solutions in homes has shown significant benefits:

• Living Areas: Layered lighting approaches combine ambient, task, and accent lighting to create flexible spaces that transition smoothly from day to evening use. Indirect lighting techniques can soften shadows and reduce glare, creating a more natural and comfortable environment.
• Kitchens and Bathrooms: These functional spaces benefit from carefully planned lighting that combines task-specific illumination with ambient light that mimics natural daylight, improving visibility while maintaining a pleasant atmosphere.
• Basements and Interior Rooms: In spaces with limited or no natural light, sunlight simulation lighting can transform potentially dark and uninviting areas into bright, welcoming spaces that feel connected to the outdoor environment.

Commercial Environments: Enhancing Productivity and Experience

The implementation of artificial lighting in interior design takes on additional significance in commercial spaces, where it must balance aesthetic appeal with functional requirements:

• Office Spaces: Modern office lighting design incorporates systems that support both focus and collaboration while maintaining employee well-being. Dynamic lighting systems can adjust throughout the day to support natural circadian rhythms and maintain productivity.
• Retail Environments: Strategic lighting design in retail spaces can enhance product presentation, guide customer movement, and create atmospheric conditions that encourage longer visits and increased engagement.
• Healthcare Facilities: In medical environments, artificial natural light solutions can support patient recovery and staff performance by maintaining consistent, high-quality illumination that mimics natural light patterns.

Hospitality Sector: Crafting Memorable Experiences

Hotels and restaurants utilise artificial lighting to create distinctive atmospheres that enhance guest experiences:

• Guest Rooms: Sophisticated lighting systems allow guests to adjust light levels and colours to their preferences while maintaining a connection to natural light patterns.
• Public Areas: Lobbies, restaurants, and other common spaces benefit from lighting designs that create dramatic effects while ensuring comfortable visibility and navigation.
• Wellness Areas: Spas and fitness centres use specialised lighting to support relaxation and energy levels, often incorporating systems that simulate natural daylight to enhance the experience.
