We have a fairly large glass wall (230cm x 350cm (90 inches x 138 inches)) that we want to replace.
The wall faces the street and is one of the main design features of the house, so we want to install something that is not only energy-efficient but also visually appealing in the same location.
Our current idea is to replace it with a large window wall. For the design, we are thinking of a four-pane window wall with diamond-shaped elements in the center (see picture).
We have already had a few window specialists look at it; half saw no problem with it (aluminum windows), while the other half were unsure if it would be feasible.
What do you think about this, and what else should we consider? For now, we only want the top two sections to be tilt-open. Opening fully is difficult due to fall safety concerns.
For the glass, we are considering Master-Carree.
