Paired
Paired windows are two windows next to each other often times under an arch. The support between the windows is called a mullion.
Notable features of Spanish Islamic architecture include horseshoe arches, paired windows with a central column, construction in brick and stone, polychrome tiles, intricate carved stucco work and overlapping arches.
The front façade is symmetrical with paired windows on either side of a simple frontispiece. The windows have simple sills, no surrounds, and no cornices or lintels. The garage is hidden from the front view, nicely tucked into the front wing.
Somewhere on the house, there maybe paired windows. Over the windows there is a Roman arch or segmented arches. On one side of the house there is a bay window, a projection out of the wall that overlooks its surroundings.
