Albany Bay Windows

Popular Local Trends & Styles

• Bathroom Bay Windows

  If you’re looking to create a relaxing sanctuary in your home, look no further than your bathroom. A bay window adds both style and luxury to your bathroom. For a beautiful statement piece, place your bathtub in the center of the bay window. Since bay windows are so large and let in sunlight, they can make even the smallest of bathrooms feel roomy.

• Kitchen Bay Window  Bay windows are a great option for multiple places in your kitchen. Bay windows above your sink area create extra counter space, while giving you an opportunity to let in fresh air while you’re doing the dishes or making a meal. If a breakfast nook is more your thing, bay windows are perfect for creating a space your family is sure to love. Install benches or a table to create a designated space for gathering.
• Victorian Bay Windows

  Bay windows are a staple in Victorian-style homes and whether you're looking to upgrade your existing bay window or add a new one, Pella can help you find the perfect period-appropriate fit. Traditionally Victorian-style bay windows protrude from the building often with a roof made from tiles or lead. Copper is a popular style choice these days. For a true period piece, choose a Victorian grille pattern and classic brass hardware.

• Custom Bay Windows

  One of the best things about bay windows is their versatility. You can choose to have a traditional three-paned window or create a window that is unique to you. Many larger bay windows can be found in traditional and newer homes. Pella professionals can help you determine the best choice for your room and customize the angles to suit your style.

Frequently Asked Questions

•   What is the difference between a bay window and a bow window?

  • Both bay and bow windows use a combination of windows to protrude from the exterior of a home. Bay windows consist of a set of three angled window panels — one large, fixed window and two flanking windows on the sides. In contrast, bow windows are made of four or more windows that create a curved shape. Learn more about the differences in size, style, light, ventilation and cost.
