Pre-Romanesque all the way. Walls two meters thick and tiny window slits. If your house can’t withstand an extended artillery barrage what’s even the point.
Y’all picking Gothic are seriously missing the Nook potential of the Oriel
Weird to include Oriel windows on there - that’s more a type of feature (a bay window that does not touch the ground) than a style of window. You can have a Gothic Oriel (like what’s in OP), or a Norman Oriel, or Brutalist Oriels…
Medieval
Tudor
WTF?
Gothic till the day I die
The only ones worth considering are Rayonnant, Oriel, and decorated Gothic, honestly.
Gothic or neo-Gothic if it’s a house. The are no other correct answers.
In my region of France, there are a lot of old apartments with oriels, but less decorated than this one. It’s great, there are often little benches under the windows.
Those don’t look very goth.
Need more black paint.
“Black Oriel” is a cool Gothic band name.
I like the Norman window. They look to be the easiest to clean.
Rayonnant and Decorated Gothic hands down.
The two Rose windows are really impractical for actually, you know, looking through, but damn do they look fascinating. I could not see much out of those for hours.
Yes but they are practical for your average 12th Century Raid, and for that I love them.
Good luck shooting an arrow through that!
I wouldn’t even be mad if someone managed to shoot an arrow through that, I’d be impressed!
An oriel is any bay window that starts above the ground. There are plenty of modernist examples as well.
Mine is the rose. Straßburg and Ulm have beautiful once!
Anything that gives trefoils, quatrefoils and spires. I’m easy.
Anglo-Saxon all the way, all day
I really like Tudor.
