11Overview33Windows are transparent wall cutouts that let light into a building without breaking its roof status. Windrose offers 34 windowframe pieces across nine shape variants and every material tier, so each Wall run can be detailed to taste from a starter shack up to a stone estate. Windows sit in the same building menu as doors and arches.55Window Shapes77ShapeRoleWindowStandard square window.

The frame itself takes wood or stone; the glass pane is abstract and does not require a separate material. Sample recipe: Tier 4 Windowframe = Wood x15; Max Health 1,500.1212TierPlan UnlockTier 1 Sticks / LeavesAutomatically unlockedTier 2 Logs / PlanksTimber Pillars, Beams, and FencesTier 3 Clay / LimestoneRustic Windows and Frames (drops from Coastal Jungle POIs)Tier 4 Mahogany / Stained GlassElegant Stained Glass Doors and Windows1414Placement1515Windows snap into wall slots the same way doors do. Walls with window cutouts are crafted separately; the windowframe is a piece that snaps into the cutout. Unlike doors, windows cannot be opened or closed and do not block movement (but arrows and ranged attacks pass through).1717Function1919Windows are purely a fitting: the frame is structural, but the glass pane is abstract and costs no extra material. A window does not block movement and cannot be opened or closed, and ranged attacks, arrows, and thrown items pass straight through the opening. That matters during a raid, because an open window face is a line of fire into a room. All windows share a 1,500 Max Health value, and the frame inherits the durability and material tier rules of the surrounding wall.2121A window cutout does not count against the roof check used by craft stations: a room studded with windows still satisfies covered-station placement as long as a roof piece sits overhead. For light without a defensive gap, the smaller Narrow Window or Small Window reduce the size of the opening.2323Tips2525Tall Windows require a stacked pair of walls; place the top wall first, then snap the Tall Window into the combined slot.Oval and Stained Glass windows are decoration-tier and do not provide more light in-game than standard windows, but they score higher at the Building Contest.A building with lots of Windows still passes the roof check for craft stations as long as the roof piece itself is in place.Stained Glass variants unlock from the same plan as Stained Glass doors: Elegant Stained Glass Doors and Windows; loot it from Foothills Points of Interest.Narrow Windows are useful for defensive outposts because they look like arrow slits; pair with Stockades for a rustic fortress aesthetic.2727See Also2929Base BuildingSettlement BuildingBuilding PiecesDoors and DoorwaysWallsArches3131Details3333Properties3535PropertyValueMax Health1,5003737Build Cost3838Duration: 1s4040IngredientQuantityPlant Fiberx154242Taught By4343PlanPlans: Woven Windows and Doors4545Variants4646A complete list of Windows variants in Windrose is shown below, with thumbnail, build cost, and comfort bonus for each entry.
