Installing Bay and Bow Windows in Your Connecticut Home
There are few things that beat a great view: sweeping images of the metropolitan Hartford skyline, relaxing views of the Long Island sound from New Haven, even a peek at your backyard garden can relax and inspire. And at Window World of Connecticut, we think windows make all the difference for your views.
Changing Your View with Bay and Bow Windows
Bay and bow windows are great options for the homeowner who wants to extend their view, with the added benefit of introducing more sunlight and ventilation to your home’s interior spaces—thanks to their three-dimensional design.
What Are Bay and Bow Windows?
Both bay and bow windows feature a curved design—usually with 3-5 panels of glass—engineered to maximize your view of the outdoors (as well as your indoor space). Consider the difference between viewing a piece of art in portrait style, versus viewing a landscape piece; the landscape view is often wider and allows for more depth in the picture. Bay and bow windows offer this same effect, plus other benefits for your home.
