Looking up at glass ceilings from around the world.
The domed glass ceiling of Victoria Square, a Belfast Mall that is listed as a Victorian architectural tourist site.
Victor Horta-designed Art Nouveau ceiling in the Comic Museum in Brussels, Belgium.
A ring of lights and a circle of stained glass in the old section of the main library in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Conservatory and Art Gallery in Madrid’s Retiro Park, Spain.
Of course the glass ceilings in Las Vegas are going to be totally over-the-top, like Chihuly’s blown-glass sculpture called ‘Fiori di Como’ that forms the gorgeous ceiling of the Bellagio’s lobby.
Stained-glass ceiling in a Victorian market in Puebla, Mexico.
A glass ceiling in the Modern Art Museum in Amsterdam, Holland. 
Architects like to add diagonals lines, as this somewhat boxy furniture store is rescued by a sculptural skylight over the exterior stairs.
A grand arched glassed-in ceiling subtly lights up the interior of the Abasto, a market in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The elaborate glass dome over the centre of the Galleries Lafayette, a large department store in Paris, France.
In going through my photos I saw that skylights seemed to be more of a northern country thing, something to add more light to darker days. The only skylight I could find in a hot country was this open-air pedestrian bridge with a blue glass awning to keep out the tropical rains in Singapore.

love the glass and all the lines
I loved all the light from skylights and glass roofs in France – they really seemed to have used them everywhere.
:0)
A great walk-through glass ceilings from different cities and towns, marvellous lines
Your mention of ‘lines’ had me scrambling for a Vancouver skylight that had better lines than the one I originally used. Thank you.
oh, great!😊
These are stunning photos. I love the lines.
I discovered that the ‘lines’ are in someway the best part of skylights.
I liked the simplicity of the Belfast dome and the intricacies of the one in Paris.
The French dome was really over the top, and just for a department store – it really should have been an opera house or something.
