Patterned Windows

The Arts and Crafts, Prairie, and Queen Anne architectural styles often feature windows with very distinctive and unique patterns. These are usually casements or double-hung wood sash windows. Sometimes the upper sash will be divided into multiple panes of glass with a lower sash as a single piece of glass. Usually these are in the form of grids or diamond/lattice style patterns. Often the window surrounds and casings will be very wide and grouped as ribbon windows, especially with the Arts and Crafts and Prairie styles.
