Everything You Need To Know About Sunburst Arch Windows

Crafting window shutters for conventional, rectangular windows is an easy task. However, when the windows have arches or an unconventional shape, stock shutters won't work. This is where extensive customization is required, especially for a window that has a sunburst design pattern. What is a sunburst window you ask? In this blog, California Shutters, designers of custom window shutters in Concord, lay out the basics of these windows and how they can be styled.

 

All About Sunburst Windows 

 

The Design

 

First and foremost, they earn the name of sunburst arch windows because of their inherent design. The window is made to resemble many rays of the sun, hence it earns the name of sunburst. The center point is at the base of the window in the middle, with rays shooting out of it.

 

The Placement

 

Most sunburst windows are placed above another main window. Usually, they are added to accentuate the beauty of a regular rectangular window. Now, they can be an extension of the base window, or they can have a small gap with some wall in between. The point is, these windows are added to create more drama and character in the room.

 

The Window Treatment

 

It must be obvious by now that regular window shutters won’t work with sunburst windows. It requires a highly customized approach. A plantation shutter fashioned in the shape of a sunburst window is the best choice to allow ample light in the room without creating a glare on your home’s screens or mirrors. 

 

Therefore, if you have a similar window in your house, then don’t hide it away and fashion a custom window shutter that will showcase its unique beauty instead.
