What Are Picture Windows?
Picture windows are large, stationary windows that serve as spectacular centerpieces. They are often used to highlight architectural elements in your home. For instance, a picture window might fill an entire wall or follow the curve of a vaulted ceiling. Picture windows are also useful for framing views of the outdoors. If your home faces some stunning scenery, a picture window provides an unobstructed panoramic view.
Because picture windows accentuate unique features and views, they are typically custom-made. Each window is uniquely designed to fit the space. Size is limited only by structural constraints. They can also be made in unconventional shapes, such as:
- Arched
- Circular
- Hexagonal
- Triangular
- Trapezoidal
Due to their large sizes and unique designs, most picture windows are fixed. Additional windows may be positioned to the sides or underneath if homeowners want a window that opens.
Why Install a Picture Window?
Picture windows are a popular choice for homeowners looking to upgrade their space. Large windows can do a lot to enhance a room’s appeal while bringing value to your home with the following benefits:
Maximizing Your View
Because picture windows don’t contain a screen, they afford clear views of the scenery outside your home. Whether your space overlooks a natural vista, tailored landscaping, or your favorite bird feeder, a picture window can transform that view into a living art piece. It can also bring you closer to the outdoors to enjoy the many associated health benefits.
Increasing Natural Light
Picture windows admit large amounts of natural light. Not only does this add beauty and ensure that your home is well-lit, but it can also reduce your reliance on artificial lighting, helping you save on your monthly energy bill.
Expanding Your Space
Abundant natural light and open views can make a room feel larger than it is. A floor-to-ceiling window creates the illusion of an extra doorway you can step through. Even smaller picture windows visually extend a room into the outdoors, creating an impression of space and combating feelings of overcrowding.
Improving Efficiency
Picture windows are typically fixed, meaning that they cannot open. This eliminates any gaps between the window and frame through which air might escape, helping your home stay cool in the summer and warm during the winter.
Simplifying Maintenance
Because picture windows are fixed, they are also easy to maintain. They have no tracks or gaps to collect dirt and grime. They also eliminate all operational components. Screens, gasket seals, hinges, and hardware can wear down over time and require more maintenance. Picture windows include only glass and a frame, which are much more durable because they’re stationary.
