A flat and an independent house put different demands on windows. Here's how the choices differ between them.
A flat often means balcony sliders, shared-wall noise considerations, and standardised openings, sometimes with society rules on external appearance. An independent house gives more freedom in styles, sizes, and finishes, and more varied exposures to plan for.
In a flat, prioritise balcony sliding doors, noise control on the exposed side, and any external-appearance constraints. In a house, plan per elevation — sun-facing, road-facing, garden-facing — with more scope for large glazing and varied styles.
