arched window design
An arched window design is a facade arrangement in which the upper part of the window opening is resolved with a curved arch form and completed with polyurethane surround and trim elements. In classical and neoclassical buildings it is used to give the window a curved upper frame; the surround, keystone and bosses are part of this design. Polyurethane elements are lightweight and applied to the facade with mounting adhesive; they resist moisture and impact, do not crack or blister, and can be painted with exterior facade paint. Mould casting ensures the same arch profile repeats on every window, keeping the facade orderly. Polure produces the surround and arch pieces suited to an arched window design in different size options.
