Windows are all about space, views and, especially, light—and they are a simple way to make your apartment a home.

You may believe that an apartment with a splendid view is impossible to find, but here at homify we have some luxurious expert examples.

We would love to stroll into one of these apartments and make a cup of tea as we watch the sun set; watch the world go by in a spare few minutes; or simply let some of the outside world inside, whether you live in the city, a small town or the green of the countryside.

We love these incredible windows (and their views) and we hope you do, too!

Top floor of Turkey

This modern Turkish apartment truly does your showing off for you; an entire wall made of windows looking over Istanbul's historical city landscape and, to put the icing on the cake, a ceiling that could practically pass for the sky.

The well-exhibited dining room boasts its unique quirks to its neighbours, but also invites the outside world in. Istanbul is easy on the eye and so is this room!

Peek-a-boo!

This apartment shows us how windows don't always have to look out to a grey sky or over a busy street! Windows between rooms share the light beautifully—and you can peek at what's being cooked for dinner, too.

Replacing the walls with glass seems mad at first, but this window gives the illusion of a magnificently open-plan apartment, even for the smallest of spaces.

Two-storey dream

Forget your search for high ceilings and large windows. Try this two-storey room with windows along the entire outside wall!

This sleek, stylish and modern apartment pairs astonishingly high ceilings and cavernously huge windows to create a bright, enormous living room. A great approach for small apartments!

180° view

Does it feel like you've spent a lifetime searching for a place with a view? Look no further for inspiration; we've found the perfect flat with a whopping 180° view.

UK-based interior designers WN Interiors have created an open living room standing over the sea in the south of the UK. Living in such a place would be as close to living on a beach as some UK-dwellers can get!

Curved and chilled

This apartment sports a two-storey window that curves softly and gracefully above you. The pale, luminous blinds diffuse the light around the room and shape a chilled-out atmosphere, especially at the end of the day when all you want to do is sit down with your favourite meal while the sun disappears behind your neighbours' buildings.

These Sao Paulo-based architects have captured the laid-back nature of industrial apartments in the city.

A grand entrance

This apartment essentially crowns you with its grand windows. They are fit for royalty!

The architects have put an elegant, classic twist on an otherwise modern Islington apartment. The high, arched windows are reminiscent of great halls and ancient cathedrals—spot on for letting in all possible light through the city landscape and adding a slightly antique flair in your home.

Skyline screen

Who needs a television screen when you have a window this huge?

This stunning duplex couples modern, industrial city living and charming views with a balcony beyond the colossal window looking over its home. YAM Studios have used inspiration from central London and the final result is this pristine apartment.

Reading nook

This is a definite favourite among avid readers. Curled up in your cosy corner, the daylight gently illuminating the page, you can easily spend a few hours getting lost in a book (or two).

Every book-lover knows that a comfortable, quiet and beautiful space in which to read is difficult to hunt down, but this relaxing reading nook from these Seoul-based interior designers is the perfect inspiration.

For more inspiration on your perfect reading corner, this article is a flawless guide for apartments and houses alike.
