For anyone that asks, when laying down flooring, the direction is always the towards the longest throw of the installation (usually being the hallway or entrance of a home). This room is in the end of the hallway so I am planning ahead for when I do the hallway, but yes, in a normal job the floors would have went towards the window.
When walking you want to see leading lines, not lines that are horizontal (just talking about laminate flooring).
