It doesn't take a lot of windows to make an impact on the personality of a home. You just need to know where to put them. And as you may have guessed, sight lines play a large role here, too. An expansive rear wall in the family room can  be filled with two-story windows to bring in the beauty of the outdoors. Even a 20-foot vaulted ceiling can support windows all the way to the top.  Fancy "eyebrow" and Palladian windows can add character to any home. So, we ensure they are located where they will have the greatest impact and not hidden away where people can't enjoy them every day. 

Sometimes windows near cabinets can have a huge influence on the "feel" of a kitchen. A bow bay window in a small dining area will make it seem much larger. Pay special attention to the interior/exterior relationship created with windows. What direction does the window face? Will it give morning or afternoon light? You may want eastern exposure for a breakfast room window that frames colorful landscaping bathed in morning light.
