Window Style
Home windows come in many styles. They can be used in combinations of the same window, such as a bank of casement windows, or you can mix it up, such as a picture window flanked by two casement windows.
No one home window is perfect for every application. Some are more suitable for capturing light or fresh air. Others lend themselves well to designing with shapes, using a variety of windows to make an interesting configuration
Whether considering windows for replacement or new construction, you will probably discover that you need different types. Use this section of our site to get a better idea of the advantages of each window style and where you might want to use it in your home.
