What Are Bay Windows?
Bay windows are typically constructed in a way that features a picture window at the center of the design, with two smaller windows angled on either side. The bay shelf protrudes outward and creates optional space that can be used for anything from a reading nook to the placement of choice indoor plants.
The Difference Between Bay & Bow Window Styles
There are many factors that differentiate a bay window from a bow window, and understanding these differences is crucial to selecting the best, most realistic option for your home. Here are the major differences between bay and bow windows:
- Construction: A bay window typically juts out from the house to form a square, hexagon, or octagon with the windows split into three segments. A bow window is a series of casement windows placed close together that form a gentle curve.
- Building: Since bay windows protrude from the home, you’ll need to ensure that the front of your home is far enough away from the property’s edge to avoid causing any problems upon construction. Bow windows require less building space and therefore pose less of an issue in regards to space and surrounding properties.
- Flooring: Bay windows will provide you with more floor space to display accent furniture or art pieces than bow windows. However, each is designed with the ability to incorporate boxed window seats—perfect for reading and enjoying the view.
- Light: Bow windows offer better natural lighting than bay windows because there are fewer architectural elements keeping the design together and blocking out sunlight.
- Ventilation: Bay windows typically operate like traditional windows since they are placed further apart and are therefore are able to maintain their structural and functional integrity. Bow windows, on the other hand, often don’t have the ability to open because of their unique shape, meaning less ventilation for your home when you need it.
