What Are
Bay & Bow Windows?
Bay windows are made up of three window panels—typically a large fixed center window flanked by two operable units (casement or slider) set at an angle.
Bow windows consist of four or more equal-sized windows arranged in a gentle curve, creating a rounded appearance.
Both styles project outward from the home’s exterior wall, creating a cozy alcove or seating area inside and a dramatic visual statement outside.
