Such interiors look especially advantageous if a beautiful view opens from the window. As a rule, large apartments in modern new buildings glaze in this way, especially the so-called "species", which overlook the forest, pond, and beautiful city buildings. Panoramic glazing is also used in private houses, if this is provided for by the design of the house project.
Pros and cons of interior with panoramic windows
Interior design with panoramic windows has its advantages. In particular, it opens up such opportunities:
- Admire the beautiful views, include them in the interior.
- Increase the amount of daylight in the room.
- Visually increase the area of the room.
- Feel the unity with nature, "let" her into the house.
- Observe natural phenomena.
Structurally large windows are much more complicated, and therefore more expensive than ordinary ones. In general, the following negative aspects of interiors with panoramic windows can be noted:
- The price of windows and their installation is much more expensive than standard ones.
- Heat loss through large glass panes is higher, so heating costs are rising. To avoid this, it is recommended to install energy-efficient double-glazed windows, which reduces operating costs, but increases one-time. Save will help a special film for energy conservation, glued to the surface of the glass from the outside.
- Washing such windows is more expensive, as it is usually done with the help of professionals.
The design with panoramic windows is demanding not only for the size of the room and the environment (it is necessary that the view from the windows is really picturesque), but also for the climate. The closer to the north, the stricter the requirements. In cold climates, panoramic glazing is used only on those walls of buildings that face south or southwest. More light gets into the room through large windows, it warms up better.
Curtains for the design of panoramic windows
Large windows are made in those cases when they are not going to block the landscapes behind the windows, so their complete absence is considered ideal curtains. So that the room is not too bright, you can use tinted glass or chameleon glass in glass units, which change transparency depending on the light. In the event that curtains in the design are still desirable, choose very light, translucent curtains from tulle or organza. If the style allows the interior, use Roman curtains.
