		Oriel College, Oxford, gets its name from a curious bay window in the building it occupied when it was founded in 1327.
		Unfortunately, Oriel College lost its original oriel when the quad was built in the 17th century, but a line of these rather jolly windows grace the street facade built in 1911.
		Some of the most charming oriel windows are a mixture of the two - the playful, elegant 'Gothick' style that tacked medieval bits on to classical buildings in a completely frivolous way, and brought serious critics such as Ruskin out in hives.

		In the south window of the gallery is a painted window of "The Presentation of Christ in the Temple", executed by William Peckitt of York and originally set in the East window in 1767.

	Architectural Styles of Lakewood (Ohio) - Lakewood Heritage Advisory Board
		An example of vernacular architecture in Lakewood would be a 2 ½ story house with a gable roof, full-width front porch, and a bay window on the first and/or second floors.
		Remember that the combinations of porch details, roof materials and shapes, wall materials, as well as window and door details are almost endless, but together they create the personality everyone knows as Lakewood homes.
		For example, replacement windows that do not match the original in size, trim detail, or glass pane pattern, or replacement porch columns and railing balusters that are too thin or too far apart will always look like a later change that doesn’t match the architectural style.

	ERCB: DDJ Programmer's Bookshelf July 1991
		Basically, MFCREATE.C shows that Windows programs don't require a window, a window class, a window procedure, a message loop, or any of the other Windows paraphernalia that makes the API so daunting to a newcomer who just wants to display three lines of output on the screen.
		When you're new to Window programming, or when you just want to write a simple utility for use by your coworkers, the basic problem is precisely that you don't have a window handle available, and Charles's NULL trick lets you avoid writing the standard 80 lines of Windows boilerplate code in order to get one.
		Oriel stands as a further example of how Windows really can be made easier for programmers as well as for users.

		Commercial buildings dating from 1890-1930 are distinguished by large windows arranged in groups on their facades.

		Beginning in the 1870s, molded, glazed terra cotta became a popular substitute for carved stone and it was used extensively to finish commercial building facades in the early 20th century.
