7 Window Styles That Will Inspire You

Choose from many available styles or opt for custom windows so you can be in full control of the design, size, and other features. Working with an experienced Chicago window company will ensure you have access to top-rated windows and design experts who will help inspire you with form, color, and functionality. 

Here are 7 window styles that will awaken your inner designer: 

Picture Window 

Enjoy your views and create a focal point in any space with a beautiful picture window. Don’t worry that the oversize window will cause your heating and cooling bills to rise—picture windows are fixed, so they are highly energy efficient. 

Bay Windows 

What charming space would you create if you had a bay window? What about a cozy reading nook or a window seat where you could watch the rainfall or enjoy the birds in spring? A quick search on Pinterest will provide dozens of ideas about how to make the best use of your bay window. 

Bow Windows 

Would you love to add visual interest to the exterior of your home? A bow window is a great way to do that! Similar to bay windows, bow windows are installed in such a way as to form a gentle curve. The design possibilities are endless, and some homeowners have even installed a bow window around a corner of their home. 

Sliding Windows 

In many homes, there is a hard-to-reach spot that could benefit from sunlight, but a typical double-hung window wouldn’t be appropriate. In spaces like that, such as over a sink or in a stairwell, a sliding window expands the design possibilities because they are easy to open and close with one hand and take up less space. 

Awning Windows 

This style of window was once very common, and it is regaining popularity as more and more homeowners realize its benefits. Awning windows are hinged at the top and open from the bottom via a crank. Because of the way they open, you’ll be able to enjoy a refreshing breeze even during a light rain. 

Garden Windows 

A garden window is a charming addition to any kitchen. Imagine being able to grow herbs and other small plants year round from the heart of your home! The windows extend away from the home, flooding the space with natural light and making it feel larger. 

Custom Windows 

Custom windows take the limits off the design possibilities for your home. Whether you want a breathtaking, oversize window that will catch every eye that passes by, or you just need something to fill an unusually shaped space, our designers can help you create something stunning.
