The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

A garden window projects a foot or so from the wall with glass on the front, top and sides. Shelves inside hold herbs, succulents and orchids, and operable side panels vent excess heat. It brings daylight to kitchens and gives plants what they want.

We install garden windows where sun and clearance suit them, usually over a sink or counter, with proper flashing at the little roof. We also talk about glass coatings so your plants get light without the room overheating.

Why people choose it

Four things done right.

Light for plants

Glass on three sides catches the day.

Room for herbs

Shelves hold pots without taking counter space.

Vent when hot

Side panels let heat escape.

Weather-tight roof

The small top is flashed and sealed carefully.
