Summaries of content, keywords and links generated by algorithms. Thank you smmry.com:
Summary 1: Many buildings nowadays have no opening windows at all; and many of the opening windows that people do build, don't do the job that opening windows ought to do.
Summary 2: It is becoming the rule in modern design to seal up windows and create "Perfect" indoor climates with mechanical air conditioning systems.
Summary 3: Double-hung windows cannot be fully opened - only half of the total window area can ever be opened at once.
Summary 4: Sliding windows have much, of the same problem - only part of the window area can be open, since one panel goes behind another; and they often get stuck too.
Summary 5: The old time French windows are a stunning example of this pattern.
Summary 6: They are narrow, full length upstairs windows, which swing out onto a tiny balcony, large enough only to contain the open windows..
