A picture window is a stationary window. That is, the vinyl window does not open. This allows for better energy performance. Picture or frosted windows are rectangular and placed so that the homeowners can enjoy a beautiful view, typically from their living room.
A picture window may stand alone or be flanked by other windows. The flanking windows may also be stationary as well, such as with a fixed casement window, but often are a standard casement window able to open and allow for ventilation when desired.
Although a fixed casement window is also stationary and tends to be energy-efficient, these windows are smaller. Also, the frame of a fixed casement window is typically wider and heavier than that of a picture window. And, picture windows or more commonly customized than fixed casement windows.
We have picture windows in our homes to enjoy the beautiful views, hopefully of vistas like the Canadian Rockies. And, picture windows are great for letting light into your home. But, how do you get some ventilation when much of the wall is taken up by a picture window?

One is to simply flank the picture window with casement windows that you can crank open as desired.
