Why do many southern communities have bay windows?

Bay window, adding a countertop to the impractical floor-to-ceiling window, can be seated and stored, and can also meet the visual effect of the floor-to-ceiling window. In contrast, China people are friendly to bay windows, but they never expected that it would be terrible and too difficult to move in.

In fantasy ↓

This bay window is neither high nor low. It is covered with Shanghai cotton mats. Sitting on it, reading, enjoying the scenery and drinking. Don't be too literary and quiet. The cabinets in the lower row can also store sundries to increase the storage space of the bedroom.

In reality ↓

The bay window of fantasy can never meet the needs of reality. For example, overnight clothes, wet clothes have no place to hang, most of them will be piled up here, and no one can see them when the curtains are closed. Pulling the curtains is another realistic photo.

However, these latter conditions can be changed slowly bit by bit, and the hateful thing is that the previous hardware cannot be changed.

1, bay window is too high

The height of bay windows is generally divided into three types: one is floor-to-ceiling windows 0 cm, the other is ordinary windows 40-50 cm, and the third is rare windows 70-80 cm. Floor-to-ceiling windows have infinite scenery and can also expand the indoor area; Regular 40 cm high, just can be used as a chair; And 70 cm from the ground can only be used as a table, but this is not recommended here. Look down patiently.

However, one of the highest bay windows in history was touched by me, and it was the only one. Just 80 cm high or low, people sit on the chicken ribs that I can't climb and smash, because this is an equipment platform.

2, can not be crushed, how to design?

For the ultra-high bay window that can't be smashed, you can only honestly spread marble and sponge mats, and then make bookcases on both sides as seats or put something; It's better than wasting it, although there are some chicken ribs.

Is it suitable to use it as a desk?

It is not feasible to use the rare ultra-high bay window as a desk, because the desktop is too high for short people to climb. Therefore, many people will choose to raise their desks to make them useful. However, no matter how high the extension is, this table will be annoying. I hate this bay window so much that I want to tear it down in minutes.

It is barely acceptable to borrow a bedside table and turn it into a desk, but if you make a desk directly on the conventional floating window, you don't have to know that you want to smash it when you use it. Although the desktop extends 8 cm outward, this design is not ergonomic. Sitting down doesn't feel relaxed at all, but it's even more tiring, because the legs and feet can't find a comfortable angle.

4. The bay window is designed in this way, which is satisfactory everywhere.

After discussing the demand, I found that the bay window is dispensable and the desk must be. I might as well design this way, and I can get satisfaction everywhere. The bedroom bed on the terrace extends evenly under the bay window, extending left and right to make a desk, and the bay window above can also be used as a bay window, and a cloth bag is placed on the terrace bed below to make a leisure area; If you don't want to sleep on the soft mat, you can just roll down and sleep on the hard board.
