Clerestery Windows: the lowdown on the highlights


Todays new homes feature "great rooms" where cathedral ceilings and clerestery (high-up) windows provide an atmosphere of light and spaciousness. Problems begin when the blinding Arizona sun shines into the eyes of daytime TV viewers. More seriously, valuable fabrics and artwork are faded by UV light.

 

Overlay windows are a maintainance-free solution to glare and UV fading. They also serve the important function of view control - hiding the unsightly view of your neighbor's roofline.
Come in to our studio with rough dimensions of your windows and we will give you a cost estimate for each design choice.
