Bay and bow windows are created by combining three or more windows at an angle. They arch outward and extend beyond your home’s exterior wall. Their unique style and dimension provide a home with more natural light, open views, and interior space.

• Bay & bow windows add dimension and architectural character to both inside and outside of your home. The top benefits of bay and bow windows include:
• Enhance curb appeal with the unique dimension of a bay and bow window.
• Increase interior space with a window seat that creates a cozy reading area or breakfast nook.
• Illuminate with windows that extend outward and direct more light into your home.
• Provides enhanced views of the outside.

The key differences between bay and bow windows are the angles and number of windows.

Bay windows are available with a 30-degree angle or a 45-degree angle, which creates a more dramatic appearance and dimension to any room. Bay windows feature either double hung or casement windows on each side of a center picture window.

Bow windows , available in a 3-, 4- or 5-lite design, always have a 10-degree angle, which creates a more rounded, circular look. Bow windows feature equal-sized double hung, casement and picture windows.

Bay and bow windows have a vintage feel and are suited for almost any traditional American home including colonials, cape cods, Victorians, ranch homes, farmhouses or cottages. With the right customizations, a bay or bow window can easily be incorporated into contemporary home designs.
