ᐅ Window layout with two-thirds fixed glazing and one-third operable sections

When I look at windows that I like, they don’t have a centered opening but rather a 1/3 to 2/3 ratio. I’ve seen this ratio both in windows with sill heights and in narrow windows (e.g., bathrooms). Does anyone have this? Is my estimated ratio correct? Since I would like to offset the frame from the sash to make the window divisions narrower, I would fix the glass on one side and use the other side to open – does that work? Any experience?
