The appearance of raised windows greatly enriches the building fa?ade modeling. The windows are picked out with boards, either long or short in length, and either straight or curved in shape. At the same time, the fa?ade is enriched by the influence of the shadows created by their projection, and undoubtedly, the principle of simplicity of modern architecture is also reflected in the interspersed blocks.

The cost of constructing the projecting windows does not vary greatly according to their shape, construction material, opening method, or color, because they are custom-made by specialized manufacturers.
