Bay window
A window assembly that projects outward from the wall, made of several angled units.
A bay window is a group of windows that stands out from the wall to form an alcove inside. The classic form has a flat center unit and two flankers angled back to the wall, usually at 30 or 45 degrees.
A bow window is similar but uses four or more units in a gentle curve. Inside, the projection often holds a seat, and outside it has its own small roof.
