Term of the Day: Fenestration

Fenestration refers to the design, arrangement, and placement of openings in a building, such as windows, doors, skylights, and curtain walls.

These elements serve various functions, including allowing natural light into the building, providing ventilation, offering views to the outside, and contributing to the overall aesthetic of the structure. Proper fenestration design is crucial for energy efficiency, occupant comfort, and the architectural character of a building.
