Morris Homes and VELUX partner to create bright and healthy homes for all

People’s homes are far more than just bricks and mortar. They are a place of warmth, love and comfort for all of us, so for a homebuilder like Morris Homes, making a home more than the sum of its parts is important. Homes need not only a solid structure but also natural elements to enhance a sense of homeliness, and that was the balance that Morris Homes was looking for. To meet this goal, Morris Homes partnered with VELUX.

The challenge of creating a healthy home culture

As the UK population typically spends 90% of time indoors, it’s vital that fresh air and natural daylight are able to navigate homes as freely as possible. But how is that possible? Morris Homes wanted to build properties with high specifications that also provide owners with healthy homes that make a positive impact on wellbeing.

Bright, spacious and a healthy home for the entire family

These homes now feature daylight-filled kitchens and natural ventilation which means healthier properties, which has been a focus for Morris Homes for over half a century. Morris Homes was able to provide potential homeowners with roof windows that made excellent use of the space inside. They combine beautiful, fresh and clean space, with the highest standards and the latest technology.

Sarah Scott, head of marketing at Morris Homes, said: “Several of our house types within our portfolio feature a small extended area in the kitchen/dining area with VELUX roof windows fitted over a glazed door. The use of VELUX really helps pull daylight further into the room, helping to create a fantastic bright and inviting space for the whole family to enjoy.”

“We’ve received a very positive reaction to these designs from purchasers, who comment on the high levels of daylight and the feeling of space that is created, whilst providing excellent views of the garden and sky, almost as if bringing the outside into the home.”

Morris Homes are one of the country’s largest and most respected independently-owned house builders. Based in Cheshire, they have helped people buy new homes across the North West, Midlands and South of England for over 60 years.

Decades of experience have earned a reputation as a responsible and professional development partner in the regeneration of local areas by providing energy-efficient and sustainable homes.
