Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jan 28, 2012 2:26 pm Hi All, I am new to building and trying to design a modern front elevation look which will not date too quickly (classy but simplistic). At the moment, I have two windows of the same style which can be seen from the front. One on the main bedroom with a 7c width and one on the study with a 6c width. Will this difference in width look strange? Is it best to have maybe both windows at 6.5c for symmetry?

Good luck! Re: Is it best if all windows on a front elevation are the s 4Jan 29, 2012 8:41 am I agree that the windows need to be the same design but different sizes particularly with your elevation. The study wall is quite narrow in comparison to the bedroom wall, I personally would put a larger window in the master to balance it out, as you have a lot of brickwork/render either side of the master window currently A question.
