Bay Windows from Huff ‘N Puff

Huff ‘N Puff lists the popular window design ideas to make the most of your bay replacement windows in Albany:

If you have long bay windows, you can create a long seat and add a dining table. This will allow you to entertain more guests during mealtime.
Make your window seat more comfortable by having a cushion upholstered and adding cozy pillows.
Create inspirational study areas by leaving space for tables or desks.
You can build bookshelves on both sides of the window to have a cozy reading nook.
If you want a cottage look for your window seats, use beadboard panels. These add dimension and texture to your window seat.
You can hide radiators and plumbing under the window’s seat. Just make sure it is vented properly and has easy access when needed.
Corner window seats make good places for breakfast nooks. You can use window treatments for added privacy.
You can build storage cabinets and/or drawers underneath the seat. If you place this type of bay window in the kitchen, you can store frequently used pots and pans inside drawers. You can also have these windows installed in the children’s room and use the storage for clothes or toys.
