The modern home design world is constantly evolving, and one trend that has been gaining popularity in recent years is the use of larger windows to maximize natural light and create a more open, airy feel in living spaces. One such window style that has become particularly popular is the 60 x 72 casement window. In this article, we'll explore the benefits of incorporating this window size into your home design, as well as some tips and tricks for making the most of your new windows.
There are several reasons why homeowners and designers are opting for larger casement windows like the 60 x 72 size. Some of the most notable benefits include:
One of the most obvious advantages of larger windows is the increased amount of natural light they allow into a space. This not only helps to create a more inviting atmosphere but can also have positive effects on mood and overall well-being. Additionally, increased natural light can help reduce the need for artificial lighting during the day, which can lead to energy savings.
With their large size, 60 x 72 casement windows provide expansive views of the outdoors, allowing homeowners to enjoy their surroundings from the comfort of their living spaces. This can be particularly beneficial for homes with beautiful landscapes or scenic views, as it helps to create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Casement windows are known for their ability to provide excellent ventilation, as they can be opened wide to allow fresh air to flow into a room. With a larger window size, this benefit is further enhanced, helping to improve indoor air quality and create a more comfortable living environment.
Larger windows have become synonymous with modern home design, and incorporating 60 x 72 casement windows into your space can help create a contemporary, stylish aesthetic. This window size can also be used to make a bold statement, serving as a focal point in a room and drawing the eye to the outdoors.
Now that we've covered the benefits of this window size, let's explore some tips and tricks for incorporating them into your home design:
When planning to install 60 x 72 casement windows, it's important to carefully consider their placement within your space. Ideally, these windows should be positioned in areas where they can provide the most natural light and take advantage of the best views. Additionally, consider how the windows will impact the flow of your space and ensure that they don't obstruct any important pathways or furniture arrangements.
While large casement windows can provide many benefits, they can also present challenges when it comes to privacy and light control. To address these concerns, it's important to choose the right window treatments. Options such as cellular shades, roller shades, or curtains can provide varying levels of light control and privacy, while still allowing you to enjoy the benefits of your large windows.
When selecting your 60 x 72 casement windows, consider how the window design can complement your overall interior design. For example, choosing windows with slim frames and minimal hardware can help create a sleek, modern look, while windows with decorative grilles can add a touch of traditional elegance to your space.
Large windows can sometimes result in increased energy consumption due to heat gain or loss. To mitigate this issue, look for 60 x 72 casement windows that incorporate energy-efficient features such as low-E glass, argon gas fill, or insulated frames. These features can help improve your home's overall energy efficiency and reduce your heating and cooling costs.
While 60 x 72 casement windows can make a stunning statement on their own, they can also be combined with other window styles to create a unique and visually interesting design. For example, you might consider pairing your large casement windows with smaller awning windows above or below, or flanking them with narrower fixed windows for added architectural interest.
In summary, incorporating 60 x 72 casement windows into your home design can provide numerous benefits, including improved natural light, enhanced views, increased ventilation, and a modern aesthetic. By carefully considering window placement, choosing the right window treatments, and selecting windows with energy-efficient features, you can make the most of this popular window trend and create a beautiful and functional living space.
Casement windows are the most common style of window. They feature hinged panels that swing open and closed. Casement windows are available in single panels or multiple panels. The direction a door swings, either to the right or the left, is called the handing. In addition to handing, window are identified as either inswing or outswing depending on whether they open into the house or towards the outside.

This newly built private house is in Sydney, Australia. The area occupied by the fenestration system in our scheduled design drawings was up to more than 110 square meters. A wide range of design details made the perfect mix of modern aesthetics and traditional sophistication, the simulated vertical hung windows with tilt & turn opening systems in this home are absolutely breathtaking. SDLS (Simulated Divided Lites with Spacer Bar) brings some historical vintage feeling to the whole building without losing any energy saving performance. Long narrow fixed windows creating larger-than-life expenses, coupled with German high-end systems made this project stand out from the rest.
The client's idea was to maintain a certain vintage feel, and our aim was to meet the energy efficiency needs and standards of modern houses as much as possible while maintaining a retro design. Doorwin’s 61S simulated hung windows with tilt & turn openings is a respectful modernization of a classic architectural masterwork.
Why choose the tilt and turn opening method?
Because it generally has better air seals than sliding, single hung, or double hung window frames. Tilt and turn windows form a complete seal when fully closed, this means they are less prone to water leakage, and cold draughts and you’ll keep more of your heating indoors where it belongs. They can be opened in the upper tilt way to ventilate at a minimum opening status and are easy to clean outside of the glass; when there’s a good day, they can be opened as normal inward casement windows.
Our well-crafted bespoke systems enhance the functionality and panoramic view of this modern house.
Huge, fixed glass walls up to seven meters long and two meters high bring great lighting and open views, making it really refreshing to the mind. Five meters high long narrow windows give the whole building a contemporary aesthetic.
