Details Windows
Windows help create the style of the house. Type (awning, casement, double-hung) and configuration (how the windows are grouped) change the feel of a house.

Light and View
A combination of windows: awning (above) and casement (below) provide a wonderful view while also allowing the owner to capture and control a breeze.
