In traditional Asian architecture, windows are more than a source for natural light and fresh air; they act as a “picture frame” for the world outside by outlining a beautiful image of the world for the homeowners inside. Windows also serves as poetic décor on the view of the building from the outside, completing the connection between the two worlds.

Windows are like the eyes of a building through which we experience the spirit and charm of the architect and remind us that the way we see the world depends on the angle of our viewpoint. As Buddha said: “What you think, you become.What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.”

We’ve selected some beautiful photos for you to enjoy the view through some classic Asian window designs.
