Illumination and ventilation of course
The windows, as one of the main means of connection between the interior and the exterior in an architectural project, have the dual function of illuminating and ventilating the surroundings. These qualities are highly valued in ambient areas with reduced areas, because it is important that they are well dimensioned and positioned as part of ventilation studies and the solar tray directory, combined with the necessities of the place.
