Architectural Windows, Gothic Glazing & Mosaic Glass
Architectural window styles in Macaw's Windows expand exterior facades through ornate stone gothic arches, multi-pane timber casements, stained mosaic glass, and fortified arrow slits. Standard vanilla glass blocks provide flat, uniform surfaces, but Macaw's Windows introduces structured framing, stone tracery, and authentic glazing patterns that integrate seamlessly into medieval cathedrals, rustic cottages, and defensive fortifications.
Gothic Arched Windows and Fortified Masonry
Gothic windows introduce pointed masonry arches and stone tracery directly into window apertures. These windows suit cathedrals, grand banquet halls, and fortress keeps where heavy stone borders elevate architectural presence.
Crafting gothic windows combines four matching stone blocks with a central glass pane:
- Crafting 4
Blackstone Gothic Window requires 4 
Polished Blackstone Bricks and 1 
Glass Pane. - Crafting 4
Dark Prismarine Gothic Window requires 4 
Dark Prismarine and 1 Glass Pane.
Gothic windows connect vertically and horizontally, forming expansive cathedral rose windows or towering nave lancets. Their pointed arches align naturally with vaulted ceilings, producing dramatic interior light beams and exterior depth.
Four-Pane Timber Windows and Log Framed Casements
Residential homes, manor houses, and village cottages often require warm wooden casements rather than cold stone borders. The four-pane window family provides grid-divided wooden sash designs formatted across every vanilla timber species.
Crafting four-pane windows uses a modular base component:
- Base component: Crafting the structural glazing grid produces the Window Four Pane Base.
- Log-framed windows: Combining 8
Window Four Pane Base with 1 
Acacia Log produces 8 
Acacia Four Pane Window. - Plank-framed windows: Combining 8 Window Four Pane Base with 1
Acacia Planks produces 8 
Acacia Planks Four Pane Window.
Log-framed variants present thicker, bark-textured exterior borders ideal for heavy timber framing, log cabins, and mountain lodges. Plank-framed variants display clean, milled edges that blend harmoniously into smooth interior drywall and refined manor facades.
Stained Mosaic Glass and Intricate Panes
For ornamental chapels, vibrant greenhouse domes, and stained palace galleries, mosaic glass blocks introduce geometric leading patterns across sixteen dyed color variants:
- Crafting mosaic blocks: Combining 8
Black Stained Glass with 1 
Black Dye yields 8 
Black Mosaic Glass. - Slicing into panes: Placing 6 Black Mosaic Glass into a crafting table produces 16
Black Mosaic Glass Pane.
Mosaic glass features delicate lead came divisions separating faceted glass segments. This texture breaks up flat monochrome surfaces, reflecting ambient sunlight with intricate crystalline texture. Panes fit within narrow one-block wall recesses, while full mosaic blocks provide solid transparent ceilings for botanical conservatories and decorative skylights.
Defensive Arrow Slits for Fortified Battlements
Castles, watchtowers, and city defensive perimeter walls require protective openings that shield archers from incoming hostile fire. Arrow slits provide narrow vertical apertures that allow defenders to fire arrows outdoors while maintaining high cover against counterattacks.
Crafting masonry arrow slits:
- Assembling 3
Cobblestone Arrow Slit uses 4 
Cobblestone and 2 
Cobblestone Slab. - Assembling 3
Blackstone Brick Arrow Slit uses 4 Polished Blackstone Bricks and 2 
Polished Blackstone Brick Slab.
Arrow slits possess narrow hitboxes that deflect incoming projectile attacks, making them essential tactical installations along fortress curtain walls, gatehouses, and defensive parapet walkways.
