Hello everyone,
we are currently planning our new building with an expected start of construction at the beginning of August.
In the first meeting with the window installer, he advised against a classic plastic corner window. Instead, he recommends two separate windows and a masonry brick pillar in the corner. For your information, the windows in this area will be equipped with roller shutters.
Our masonry is planned with 42.5cm bricks.
Does the brick pillar then also have to be 42.5x42.5cm or can it be smaller, possibly 30x30cm?
We would like to provide the brick pillar in anthracite color so that the appearance of a corner window can be simulated.
Has anyone already had experience with this variant?
Attached is a photo from Google Images of the desired result.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Andi

Hello Andi,
we are currently facing exactly the same window question. Therefore, I would be interested to know why the window installer advised you against the classic plastic corner window solution. I also have concerns and would feel more comfortable with a masonry corner. However, what bothers me is that in that case the windowsill does not run around the corner. How did you ultimately decide and are you satisfied with the result? Maybe you could upload a photo?
Best regards
