Four or five units set in a gentle curve, a softer look than a bay on the right elevation.
A bow window uses four or five equal units set in a gentle arc rather than three at hard angles, which reads softer on a traditional elevation and spreads the light more evenly across the room.
Because a bow has more joints than a bay, the sealing and the head flashing have to be right the first time. That is the part we do not rush.
