Bathrooms have always been a place for comfort and relaxation. The look of a bathroom can vary, depending on wall decorations, paintings, paints, pieces of furniture or even tiling to make your stay in the bathroom as relaxing as it can be.
opens the room up and creates opportunity for more natural light which is more beneficial than artificial light for many different reasons.
Creating more natural light in the home can lead to higher productivity, more creativity and a better sleep schedule. As humans, our eyes and brains function much more efficiently when we are around natural light rather than artificial light.

Before heading to a shop to buy windows, take some time to learn some important terms for windows:
- flashing– material installed on windows in order to prevent water from entering the gaps;
- mull– to adhere windows together;
- muntins– separates the sash into smaller parts of glass;
- R- value– number that represents the insulation capacity. If you are opting for higher insulation, get the ones with a higher number. and
- sash- the frame that holds the glass window; the number of hung windows is the same number of frames.
Also, consider these factors in choosing the best glass window for your bathroom:
Energy efficiency- the capacity of a window to reflect radiated heat back to the room; the more efficient the window, the better as it captures natural daylight to warm a certain room. Using highly- efficient windows are better for bathrooms to dry tiles and avoid molds.
Environment– Consider having two or three-pane glass windows that has spaces in between. The air between these panes insulate the room.
Installation- When choosing windows, consider the path of water when the bathroom is being used. It is important to use flashing tapes to seal the installation of windows.
Placement- Choosing the best place for your window is an important factor as you want the view of nature but you also want privacy. Some windows can be placed high above the wall or on the ceiling to get natural light in and still secure your privacy. Some can be glazed to let natural light in but still allow you to enjoy your privacy.
Ventilation- Some pictures in our gallery show windows that are operational, meaning they can be opened to let air in. However, some windows show a magnificent view but are fixed, meaning they cannot be opened. Most pictures in our gallery show tubs near a window. In this case, a tempered glass is most recommended for safety purposes.
In the picture below, there are two operational windows and one fixed window with an option to glaze.
I like the view but I also want privacy. Is there a way to get these two?
If privacy is one of your big considerations, here are some options you may consider:
Glass apps– glasses are applied with self-adhesive smart film. After this, the glasses can be controlled to be opaque or transparent using a control. Seen on the left image are windows that are opaque while on the right, the glasses were controlled to be transparent.

Frosted glass– To improve privacy in your bathroom, you may opt for frosted glass windows which can come in different designs. These glasses diffuse and scatter light but still illuminate the room. If you already bought transparent glass windows, you may use frosted window films that can be used to have the same effect without replacing your existing glass windows.
Here in our gallery, our only investment is windows, large windows that showcase the beauty of nature that can be seen from these gorgeous bathrooms.
