this site has OODLES of information about everything from 'changing a lightbulb' to
building homes. and adding systems.
Gary, the owner of the site, keeps adding other folks' research and development and
experimentation.
You might find something there, or maybe send Gary an email.

I might also suggest Mike Oehler's earth integrated way of building, which is available h
here on permies, and his own site. His ways of getting light air and views into a subterranean
area are great! and will help to keep your basement from being a dark cave.
many blessings to all.
