Loving Georgian windows!!!
The Georgian style is understated elegance, with a traditional, stately look defined by symmetry.
A little history for you…

Georgian architecture of the 18th century is influenced by classical Greece and Rome more so than any other period of English architecture. Any of you who love your period movies or novels would know the “Grand Tour” of Europe that the youth of the English aristocracy would take to “finish” their education. This inspired a whole generation of young and wealthy men to return to England and build gorgeous Georgian houses, complete with loads of fabulous Georgian windows…

Georgians are generally sash windows, with thin wooden bars dividing standardised panes of glass, thus maximising the amount of light coming into the home.

I find I generally don’t like the modern versions of Georgian houses in Australia…but the windows are always gorgeous, expansive and elegant.
