Where to put WINDOW?

11 years ago

I want a window on this wall because the view is so great - but I'm not sure where to put it on the wall? I want to make sure I preserve enough wall space. Have windows flank the steps coming down? Slide it up near the other windows and put a cozy chair in this corner?This will be living room with desk/bookshelf piano and love seat or chair for reading.

If you put the new window near the other two windows, there will be a sight-line out the new window from the room to the left of the living room. But having it where you suggested would bring more light into that part of the room. have you played around with where the furniture will go? if you aren't putting a TV or sofa in it, then you probably don't need a lot of wall space.
