Sorry, thought you were talking doors there, but maybe Velfac French doors? But yeah, I believe pivot would work, you can specify where you want the pivot to be (IQ Glass do them I believe).
I have also seen nice all bi fold somewhere but imagine they are crazy money.
In that pic your guttering is prob going to over hang the 3 part window.
Totally forgot to look out the guy, sorry...

This is almost exactly the question I've been looking at!
I had been put off pivot as performance is apparently not great, plus I think they can be a bit of a finger trap (and we have young kids) - but would be willing to be persuaded otherwise.
What size will your window be?

What are the dims of that window? Something like that would be like a pivot door I think? We have one which is the max size that Rationel do which you can easily pop in and out of but doesn't look as big as yours
-
Either normal two pane slide fold outward opening - or you could look at tilt turn french door set (rationale do this) - which would give you the ability to ventilate without opening everything up.
You do see those asymmetric pivot doors on projects but sounds like a really bad idea to me if you are planning benches either side - the pane will swing across surfaces you (or things) are sitting on. Recipe for squashed kids

I'm looking to have an opening picture window as part of a ground floor extension, shown in the pic attached.
Which type of opening configuration would suit this best? Two-panel bifold? There will be bench seating underneath this window, both inside and outside, so the ability to fully open the entire thing would be great... this obvs precludes a sliding type.
Side pivot? Does such a thing exist/would it be practical for this size opening?
