Oriel windows are a steadily growing trend in the architectural glazing space with many residential and commercial buildings opting for them as a statement glazing system. Oriel windows can be used in a variety of ways. The construction of them allows for human weight loads to be withheld which allows the windows to be used as overhung seating. Oriel windows are also frequently used as large viewing boxes, often completed with plants or other decorative objects.

Four identical windows in a square formation are installed on the first and second floor of the building, leaving two flats with two windows each. The opening size is approximately 905mm wide and 1527mm high which is a similar size to the remaining, standard windows installed throughout the building. This ensures that the windows do not overpower and appear too large for the building.

There is also a singular oriel window located on the ground floor of the building which is larger than the previous four. With such a large window at eye level for anyone walking past the building the security and privacy was a main concern for this window. Internal blinds can be installed for privacy, and security can be guaranteed due to IQ’s extensive testing.
