Massachsetts Bay Windows


Posted in: Replacement Windows


Bay windows are the ultimate example of the glazier’s art. There is no other type of installation that so perfectly matches the privacy, warmth and comfort of the interior of a home with the freedom and space of the areas outside that room. If the purpose of great architecture is to invite the outside in, without exposing the inhabitants of a home to the elements, then the bay window nook is surely the ultimate way of achieving that object.

When it is too hot, it is nice to sit in the cool of one’s home: but not so nice to miss out on all the blue skies, the birds in the air, the plants blooming and growing. Bay windows mean you can genuinely relax in all that beauty – but with the shade of your home stopping you from becoming uncomfortable and ceasing to enjoy your own garden or vista. When it is too cold, staying indoors can become extremely depressing because it deprives you of real natural light, of the sight of the sky and the sounds of the winter birds. With a bay window nook in your home, you can read in warmth and comfort – whilst surrounded on three sides by that crisp, clean winter sky.

The whole point of a home is to make the most of its external aspects, its actual surroundings, as well as to offer a nice interior. Indeed, the nicest interiors are always those that have been framed and informed by the surroundings of your home. Bay windows allow you to use the views that you are blessed with as a living part of the decoration of the inside of your house – transforming any room, and every house, into the home that you have always wanted. You can make the most of the world outside without having to leave the comforts of your living room. And you can feel a connection with the inside of your home when you are in your garden.

The point, then, of the bay window is really to make sure that the home does not become a place that cuts you off from the outside world. No hum can be truly happy, and no home can be particularly nice, if it ignores the openness of the world outside. Bay windows are there to remind you that the world outside your window is a part of the place you live – indeed, that the place you live in, your home, is as much a part of the wider world as your street and your town.

All towns, cities, even villages can suffer from that “keeping yourself to yourself” syndrome, whereby everyone scurries home every night and never really sees their neighbours. In part this is a symptom of having homes that really do cut you off from the outside world. By installing a set of bay windows you can rediscover the world outside and feel much more like a proper part of it.
