CREATIVE WAYS TO USE YOUR BAY AND BOW WINDOWS

Originally for Victorian-style architecture in Great Britain, bay windows were adopted into American buildings in the late 1800s. Bay windows, along with bow windows, consist of two or more panes. A common sight in older homes, these usually feature a large expanse of glass.

Creative Ways Use Bay Bow Windows

Renewal by Andersen® of St. Louis offers a few ways you can make the most of your bay and bow windows.

Built-In Banquette

Create a casual look by installing a banquette just below the sill and tossing on some pillows. You can also add a pedestal-style table of the right height to transform the space into a mini coffee area. Ensure a smooth transition to the windowsill by adding a shelf behind the back cushion of your banquette.

Dining Area

On your next windows installation in St. Charles, MO, add bay and bow windows to a room and make it a spot where you can eat. You can do this by raising the windowsills right above table height. Build a dining counter into the bay afterwards.

Study or Work Area

To create a built-in desk into your bay and bow window, make sure your windowsills are at the proper height for the desktop. You can use window treatments to make sure the glare isn’t too strong on your computer monitor. You may use blinds to moderate the light and still allow a view of the outside.

Bathroom Window Seats

You can build your tub into bay windows, to create window seats. You may use a freest anding tub and use the space around it to highlight the depth of the room. Using window treatments, such as blinds, drapes, or curtains, will help you maintain privacy.

"Renewal was fantastic! They kept you in the loop from ordering to installation. They informed you at every step of the process of what was happening. The installers were kind, courteous, and professional. Everything was cleaned up after the installation. It was as if they hadn't been there except to see your beautiful new windows. I highly recommend them."

"3rd time using RBA for window replacement. Again, a very positive experience, the windows are great, the installation was done right, the professionalism was apparent from start to finish. Still have existing windows to be replaced and will definitely use RBA again to do it in the future."

"Renewal by Andersen was a good experience for us in replacement of our windows. From the initial meeting with the sales representative, Leslie, through the waiting period for manufacturing, and then to the installment process, our experience was excellent! Communication is key for me and we were kept informed and updated as our windows were being ordered and manufactured. Calls to update us on the installation process were welcomed and appreciated. They know how much is too much so they don't pester you with unnecessary contact. We love our new windows!!! Did I say that already??😂 We can tell a major difference in reduced Street noise and also the temperature at our windows. Excellent company, highly recommend!!"
