A fixed window is the architectural decision to prioritize view and light over ventilation. No mechanism. No hardware. No sash — just glass held in the thinnest possible frame, flush with the wall, presenting nothing but the view beyond it.
When the view is the point, the window should get out of the way.
Why It Works
Design & Performance
Maximum Glazing Area
With no operating hardware, the glass-to-frame ratio reaches its theoretical maximum. More light. More view. Less visual interruption.
Unlimited Shape
Fixed windows can be rectangular, square, arched, trapezoidal, or any geometry your architecture requires. No mechanism means no constraint on form.
Slim Sightlines
Without the structural requirements of an operating sash, frame profiles can be reduced to their minimum. Our fixed frames are among the slimmest available in any material.
Highest Thermal Performance
A sealed unit has no operational joints to manage — and therefore no thermal weak points beyond the frame itself. Fixed windows are the highest-performing units in any system.
The Approach
The Window as Architecture
Fixed windows are specified wherever the intent is compositional rather than operational — large picture windows in living areas, clerestory bands in high-ceilinged spaces, and statement glazed panels that define the character of an elevation. We coordinate fixed units with operating windows across the same facade, matching profile depths and sightline widths so the overall composition reads as a unified system.
