The ‘Vermont window’ often known as witch window, coffin window, lazy window, or simply a sideways window were not borne out of a modernist attitude or a desire for doing something different. It was rather a practical well-fit-in solution. It is normally a double-hung sash window or a single-sided casement window, placed in the gable-end wall of a house-roof. Its placement matches the slope-angle of the roof -usually at 45°. The window fits in gable side small space between the normal roof and its raised portion. Roofs have dormer windows for attic spaces.
