Looking good! Nice work on all the windows, calculating mine took ages because I wanted as big as possible while still having a relationship to the old sash windows.
What are you saying is perfect desk height? My guys said the lowest we could put a window in was 80cm from floor but desks are around 70cm? My original plan was to have the desk and window cill line up, but sadly once again chips were pissed in.

I do tables and desks at 740mm
What’s the reason for minimum 800mm for a window? If he’s sighting regs rather than structural constraints you can do laminated glass to get lower. It’s just about people not falling through it.

Thanks! Yeah, the larger dormer window was just 15mm shy of being condemned lol.
80cm is my preferred cill height, as I like there to be a lip above desk height, and it fits nicely with building regs.

Loft exterior and roof nearing completion. Once watertight, scaff gets removed from rear of house, and excavation for ground floor slab begins.
It was touch and go with window aperture sizing and getting everything to fit. I ordered the Velfac windows months ago on the basis of my amateur CAD drawings, which luckily all worked out in real life. The smaller loft room window sits centred, at the perfect height for a desk, and the corner just about clears the existing brick wall. The larger dormer window also sits centred, with the horizontal transom between panes also at the perfect height for a desk. Arsecheeks partially unclenched.
