This elliptical direct set transom window is a specialized Revit family featuring smooth arched profiles and clean fixed glazing. The unit exhibits an elongated semi-elliptical or arched geometry designed primarily as a direct set specialty window or transom. A broad horizontal bottom rail supports a curved outer frame with stepped perimeter profiling and integrated brickmould detailing. Finished in a neutral warm beige tone with clear cyan-tinted glazing, the assembly provides an expansive uninterrupted sightline without internal muntins or transoms, maximizing natural daylight penetration across low-pitch openings.
The download is a 471 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
Load the RFA component directly into Autodesk Revit project templates to place within exterior host walls. As a dedicated window family, it inserts into standard wall assemblies, cutting the appropriate curved opening automatically. Project teams can align the flat sill profile with door heads or patio assemblies, adjust family materials for exterior cladding and interior trim, and assign schedule parameters for standard window schedules.
Architects frequently position elliptical direct set windows directly above sliding patio doors, French entries, or clustered rectangular windows in custom single-family residences, suburban villas, and boutique hospitality chalets. It pairs naturally with classic timber trim, metal-clad fenestration systems, and vaulted living room ceilings where traditional architectural fenestration and curved masonry arches define the exterior facade.
