To fill up your window, I'd start with a simple box with a glass texture 
and ior, with possibly some normal perturbations. Then, I use narow and 
long boxes or cylinders to make the window's framework. Those can 
probably exeede the size of the window, as they'll be hiden inside the 
surrounding wall, unless you want to open the window.
