Modern White Single Hung Window with Triangular Transom

Designed for residential and light commercial facades, this modern Revit window family features a single-hung unit capped by a triangular transom. This window configuration pairs a standard vertical two-lite opening with an integrated triangular clerestory directly above the upper sash. The main lower portion presents a rectangular profile split horizontally, characteristic of single-hung fenestration, while the angled top unit slopes steeply to accommodate raked ceilings, gable rooflines, or asymmetrical wall geometries. Narrow white framing cleanly defines each glazed light, maintaining consistent mullion sightlines throughout the assembly. The proportions combine functional lower ventilation zones with maximum daylight harvesting through the fixed triangular upper pane, creating a distinctive architectural aperture for custom exterior envelopes.

The download is a 164 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 family directly into Revit projects and host it within standard exterior wall assemblies. The element automatically cuts its opening geometry, aligning frame depths to project specifications. Modelers can adjust type parameters for frame materials, sill heights, and glass finishes within the family properties, ensuring seamless scheduling across elevation sheets, window schedules, and quantity takeoffs.

Suited for residential townhouses, suburban villas, contemporary chalets, and attic conversions where pitched rooflines dictate custom glazing shapes. This unit integrates naturally into master bedrooms, vaulted living rooms, or stairwell double-height voids. Specifiers searching for gable windows, raked transom lights, single-hung fenestration, or clerestory wall elements will find this versatile component effective for conveying accurate fenestration layouts in design development packages and visual presentations.
