Hello. There is very little information in your question to answer it accurately.

  • Which tile is used - single or in the form of a panel of irregular shape from several tiles?
Single tile
Single tile
  • How to finish the surface - on the frame (ventilated facade) or without it?
  • What is the angle of the bay window?

In general, in such cases, there are only two options for finishing obtuse corners with a single facade tile with metal embedded:

  • Having reached the break point, the tile is cut at the end, but not perpendicular to the surface and not at 45 degrees, as they do if the angle is straight. The ends of the joined elements are cut off at an angle equal to half the magnitude of the angle of the bay window.
  • Since the method described above requires accuracy and skill, without sufficient experience it is very difficult to dock tiles in the corner accurately. In this case, you can simply cut the tiles to size, and close the joint after installation with a decorative cover - wooden, plastic, metal.

If you use such a panel for cladding:

it’s even harder to get the corner out. You can use the method described above with pads, fixing them mechanically: by drilling the pads, tiles and pulling them to the frame or bay window wall.

You can try vertical laying - if the height of the panel is a multiple of the width of the wall, the joint will just have to be at an angle. It may end up looking pretty interesting, it all depends on the texture and shape of the tile.

If none of these options suits you, perhaps you should think about finishing the bay window with other facade materials. For example, facade plaster. Or clinker tiles, similar in appearance, or vice versa - having a contrasting main finish color. It can also be lined with other elements of the building: columns, balconies, gable, cap to create a harmonious ensemble.
