If you're looking to elevate your home's design and make a lasting impression, specialty windows are a standout choice. These unique, fixed-shape windows add beauty, architectural interest, and natural light to any space—no matter the style of your home.
At Acre Windows & Doors, we install Andersen® specialty windows in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Whether you're designing a new home or upgrading an existing one, our team helps bring your vision to life with expert craftsmanship and personalized service.
What Are Specialty Windows?
Specialty windows are non-operable windows crafted in custom geometric or curved shapes. They are often used as architectural focal points—above entry doors, in vaulted spaces, or as eye-catching accents that reflect your home's personality.
Popular specialty window shapes include:
- Arches
- Circles and half-rounds
- Octagons
- Triangles
- Trapezoids
- Eyebrows and gothic peaks
Pair them with standard windows or use them as standalone pieces to add a modern or classical flair.

🆕 2025 Design Trends: Specialty Windows Take Center Stage
As homeowners continue to invest in personalized spaces and curb appeal, specialty windows are emerging as a top design trend for 2025. Here's what’s trending in the year ahead:
- Oversized & Statement Shapes: Designers are using large-scale specialty windows as focal points in entryways, staircases, and great rooms. Arched and triangular windows are especially popular in vaulted ceilings and modern farmhouse designs.
- Black Interior Frames: While black exterior window frames have been trending for years, 2025 is seeing a rise in black interior frames, even for specialty shapes. They create a bold, modern contrast in both minimalist and traditional homes.
- Curved & Organic Geometry: Instead of sharp angles, homeowners are leaning into softer, more fluid shapes. Arched windows, round windows, and even custom eyebrow windows are seeing a resurgence, especially in Mediterranean and coastal styles.
- Gridless Glass for a Clean Look: Grilles are taking a backseat in 2025. Clean, unbroken glass is becoming the standard for homeowners who want expansive, minimalist views with a touch of elegance.
- Mixed Window Styles: More homeowners are pairing fixed specialty windows with operable windows—like casement or awning styles—to combine function with form. For example, a large trapezoid or circle above a set of double-hung windows can transform a standard wall into a design feature.
