Hello fellow building enthusiasts,

Does anyone have experience with Danish or Scandinavian-style windows?

I’m referring to windows that open outward and are typically installed flush with the exterior facade. These are quite common in northern Germany as well. For example, the House Timm in Husum, winner of the 2018 Houses Award, uses these windows. They look very elegant.

We’re curious about the advantages and disadvantages, as well as the costs of such windows. Of course, they would be installed without any external cladding like external blinds or roller shutters.

Thank you

You will get wet if you try to close the windows when it is raining.
How does it work in windy conditions?
