Hello Nishant, It all depends on which part of India is your project located. If you are planning to have a glass canopy / skylight then be sure to maintain it as it will get dirty very easily with stains , bird poop and dust. Also make sure you do for a double / triple glass assembly as it will be more resilient to heat due to air gap between the glasses. You can also go for polarised glasses or UV glasses which will cut down the heat considerably in the living room. I will suggest you to avoid clear glass and go for a translucent glass. Please check some of the translucent glass ideas. regards, Smit Bhagat

the sink should be at 33" from the floor. your countertop height will depend on if you're using a top mounted or insert sink

Jaggi, while it depends on the overall depth of the coffer ceiling but as a thumb rule you can leave a safe gap/height of 9-9.5 ft from lower end to the floor. Thanks, Nitin Cornerstone Designs, Bangalore.
