How do windows open for ventillation?
12 years ago
I'm trying to do something on a smaller scale but can't find windows other than remote skylights. Are these regular windows? I have all your books. When will your next one be out? I'm trying to get out of a way too big house & remodel a not so big house. Wish more designers had your insight.
