Cleveland Bay Windows

Bay windows add space, light, and style

Bay windows are popular for their ability to capture a large amount of natural light while creating the illusion of additional space within the home. A bay window extends beyond the exterior of a home. This type of window is popular in a number of home styles including Tudor, Victorian or Queen Anne, and bungalow.

Commonly known as: projection window, bay box window, Oriel window

Large Bay Window Sizes

Bay windows are available in many sizes, from around 40 inches wide to much larger. Big bay windows can add additional light and create the illusion of additional space, making them a popular choice for homes with limited square footage including townhomes or row houses. A larger sized bay window can also provide the opportunity to create a bay window seat, creating a place to relax and read or simply additional seating when entertaining.

Kitchen Bay Windows

The trend of adding a bay window above a kitchen sink allows light into a room that may contain few windows. Because it extends beyond the exterior wall, a bay window lets in more light while using less wall space, allowing you more room for kitchen wall cabinets.

Traditional Bay Window Architecture

Tudor-style homes, like those found in West Akron, often feature bay windows. Bay windows are also commonly seen in Queen Anne, Victorian, shingle-style, cottage-style, and Craftsman-style homes. From an architectural standpoint, bay windows work well with vertically-proportioned home exteriors, adding an interesting element to the exterior of the home as well as the interior.

Types of Bay Windows

Bay windows are seen in several variations. A box bay window is a 90-degree bay window, protruding from the exterior of the house at a complete right angle, typically with one larger window in the middle flanked by smaller window panes. A bow window is similar to a bay window but is created with four or more windows designed in a curved line extending from the home. These windows are created with a different frame than a bay window. Oriel windows are bay windows that are seen on an upper story of a home, supported by brackets or corbels.

Keep warm in the winter by reducing the heat loss from your home. Window panes of glass with Advanced Low-E will help keep your home insulated, blocking out the cold and keeping the heat in.
