If you have a great view from your house, or will one day when you win the lottery, it pays to think through the design of your windows to really take advantage of your location and make that view a show stopper. These views are all the more amazing because of the way they've been framed. Which one will you be adding to your dream home checklist?
1. Yes, please, I'll take it. This Sydney home makes the most of its Newport views at every opportunity. Cloud gazing is encouraged.
2. To make the most of this leafy outlook, narrow black steel rectangles break up the glass expanse without breaking up the view.
3. A pocket window is just what this bathroom needed to make bathing blissful. I can imagine opening the window during a thunderstorm – what a way to feel alive!
5. Can you imagine what happens to this Manhattan view when night falls and the bright lights of the city come to life? The interior colour palette is warm but neutral enough to let the view steal the show.
6. It's hard to imagine this house ever being a modest red-brick dwelling. It now makes the most of its big-blue views with picture windows. The outdoor room draws the eye still further out across the ocean and the rugged rocky shoreline between Coogee and Clovelly in Sydney.
7. Telescoping doors achieve the same purpose, and far from taking away from the view, the posts echo the shape and proportion of the tree trunks outside.
