Window Types that Maximize Light and Create Picture Perfect Views
Windows have many functions, such as ventilating your home and allowing you to see outside. All windows will allow natural sunlight in. But not all windows are able to provide stunning views AND maximize natural light into your home. So while styles like single-hung and double hung are great for many areas, other window designs should be used to produce that wow factor. There are a few types of windows that accomplish both stunning views and a ton of natural light, which present below.
Picture Windows
Picture windows are also sometimes called architectural or fixed windows. They are large, fixed windows that offer unobstructed views outside. These can be large or small, sometimes taking up large areas of walls.
If you want to really make your design pop you can use them as part of a design. They are many times combined with half circle windows above them, or smaller windows on either the sides or top. You can also add them above doors to produce extra sunlight. This allows you to create an amazing design out of glass, while also giving the potential of breathtaking views and a ton of natural light.
Casement Windows
Casement windows are larger, vertically oriented windows that have hinges on either the left or right side. They swing inward and/or outward to provide ventilation. Casement windows can be installed in series to create large areas of glass on walls. And this means larger views and more natural sunlight.
Awning Windows
Awning windows have hinges on the top of the window and open outward. They are a great choice for allowing a lot of sunlight into a room. Awning windows are a great fit for bathrooms where you want sunlight with privacy, but they can also be used throughout the home. One creative way to use awning windows to create stunning designs is to put them above or below picture windows. This helps to give the unobstructed view of picture windows while also providing ventilation.
Horizontal Rollers
Horizontal rollers are larger, horizontally oriented windows. They make our list because their orientation offers a lot of natural light and unobstructed views. As shown in the image above they are a popular choice for kitchens, providing a view out. They are also a great choice as an egress window in bedrooms.
