ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL

PROJECT SPOTLIGHT

Washington, D.C. – Roosevelt High School’s skylight project was a courtyard enclosure. The enclosure consisted of several back-to-back sawtooth skylights with large formed gutters in between.

The skylights incorporate both standard insulated laminated glass and View Electrochromic Glass. View Electrochromic customized glass system provides tinting of the glass that is controlled by a computer, based on the intensity of the sun and pre-set preferences. This high-tech system can have standards pre-programmed based on the time of day as well as individual remote controls that can make tint changes lighter or darker depending on daily preferences. This system was utilized to give the owner ultimate control of natural daylight in the space.
