NEED ADVICE: Spacing for second floor windows

Carolyn Fitzgibbons

4 years ago

Need advice on the best spacing for second floor windows. Attached are mock ups of the 3 options. Note second floor has 2 bedrooms evenly divided down the centre of the house. Also we eventually want to move the main floor door to the empty brick space (currently on the side).

Wide windows

Narrow windows

Evenly spaced windows

Need to see the floor plan and how you plan to arrange furniture. Do you have ALL the elevations by chance as you do not really decide this in a vacuum.
