Rodolfo Cañas extends "oversized skylight" from Mogro House in Chile

A stainless steel volume topped by a skylight protrudes from this house in Santiago, which Chilean architect Rodolfo Cañas has completed for his family.The residence is nicknamed Skylight House after the extension that peeks out above the house. Clad in stainless steel panels, the slender volume lets light in through a large opening at the top, and contains a black steel staircase inside that leads up to the roof.
This is the only part of the home visible from the surrounding streets."Onl
