Architectural Shape Windows in Simcoe County & the GTA

Standard window sizes work for many openings, but they are not the right answer for every elevation. Architectural shape windows are designed for spaces where the window itself becomes part of the home's visual character. They can be used as a focal point, paired with operating windows, or incorporated into a larger window composition.

Architectural windows are especially useful when the opening, roofline or room design calls for a custom profile. They can stand alone or be combined with other window types to build a larger feature.

Architectural shape windows combine design flexibility with the durability and performance expected from a complete window system. A specialty shape still needs suitable glazing, framing and installation because it remains part of the home's exterior envelope.

The strongest designs usually start with the room and exterior elevation, then use the shape to solve a specific architectural need.

Specialty windows need more attention to dimensions and surrounding design than a standard stock opening. A clear process helps avoid ordering a shape that does not fit the architecture or the rough opening.
