Archer & Buchanan Architecture, Ltd. Glad you like the photo. This could be a great idea for a kitchen space. For this cottage it overlooks a small reading nook. We call this the butterfly window. It was custom designed by Archer & Buchanan to hinge from the center while the two halves of the circle open like wings.

added by Lisa Frederick to Houzz Tour: 'Hobbit House' in Pennsylvania Countryside
The cottage's distinctive butterfly window, made from mahogany and so named because it looks like the wings of a butterfly when open, stemmed from Tolkien's sketches, as well as his descriptions of hobbits preferring windows that showcase views of the woods. The semicircular halves of the window open from a center hinge.
