What are the precautions for decorating bay windows?

1, the choice of bay window: Speaking of the popular bay window, there are two forms: one is stepped and the other is completely floor-standing. No matter which one is adopted, it can increase the lighting and ventilation functions of the apartment and add extra charm to the house.

In addition, according to the relevant regulations, the area of houses with non-vertical walls such as oblique arcs and parts with a height of more than 2.2 meters should be calculated; If the house wall inclines outward beyond the outer edge of the bottom line, the building area shall be calculated by floor projection. In other words, as long as the height of the bay window with steps does not exceed 2.2 meters, it is not considered as the sales area, so there is no problem of paying for the bay window. Therefore, the height from the floating windowsill to the ceiling is less than 2.2 meters, and the windowsill is not included in the area. The balcony floating outside (only one side against the wall) is half the area; The inner balcony (with three walls) is the whole area. Floor-to-ceiling windows over 2.2 meters effectively expand the actual use area of the house, so it should be included in the property area of the house, and the house price should be calculated according to the final measured area.
