"Le finestre, con vetri basso emissivi che contribuiscono al risparmio energetico, sono basse e aperte sul lato ovest verso la piazza, **un taglio in vetro** sulla parete est rivela invece la suggestiva visione dal basso delle torri della chiesa per creare una connessione emozionale con l’edificio che invece è completamente occultato all’interno del foyer"
this sort of comes up again in
"Le due sale hanno forme consone al loro uso e sono illuminate da **finestre tagliate sul muro** che vengono schermate dal rivestimento in legno per permettere di filtrare la luce."

for "finestre tagliate sul muro" you'll probably need to say it differently.
What pretentious twaddle we get to translate sometimes.....I have never seen a window that wasn't "tagliata su un muro".
