RE: So Many Windows

in Photography Lovers3 years ago

Yeah exactly haha. I want to buy some and bring them home with me when I go back. They would probably cost a fortune though and would be impossible to install I bet. They are heavy things and I notice that the outer walls on homes are often much thicker in Europe. I'm sure that the shutters require some sort of fortification to withstand the weight so I doubt you can just attach them to any old home. Would be nice though. I bet they save a lot of energy by keeping the house cooler in the summer by blocking the sun and warmer in the winter by holding the heat in.

Sort:  

Get some cheap replica lightweight wooden ones made, or steal them from a cupboard and give them a lick of pain. I just actually noticed that the doors in my attic that lead into the eaves are essentially those shutters but with little door handles on them.

Not a bad idea haha. 😂
