Challenge 307: The bay window
I found this bay window on a pub in Islington, London, and was struck by what a beautiful piece of design it was.

It made me think: how would it look if it was completely round, rather than attached to a wider window? Where might we place such a magnificent structure? What sort of activities might happen inside it?

Making the window completely round isn't going to be an easy job - but that right side does look rather flippable...

High res is here.

Thanks Sophie. Had to be quick as I'm off on another trip. Probably won't see anyone's efforts until a week on Sunday

Excellent work from everyone last week. Didn't have time for that one
