        "text": "Choosing the right size and placement for a skylight involves considering the room's function, desired light level, and roof structure. Generally, a skylight area equivalent to 3-5% of the room's floor area is recommended for adequate light. Placement should optimize natural light throughout the day and avoid direct glare. A practical tradeoff to consider is balancing the desire for maximum natural light with potential heat gain in warmer months; strategic placement and glazing options can help mitigate this.",
