Hung windows come in two common varieties: single and double. In both cases, the single hung and double hung windows have two panes of glass aligned vertically. In a single hung window, one pane can open and slide up and down. In the double hung window, both panes can open and close.

Picture Windows

Picture windows do not open, but are rather stationary. Of course, this is not good if you are expecting some ventilation. Nevertheless, picture windows are sleek and provide a good source of light, and without moving parts, are easier to maintain.
