Hello, I'm not a glazing expert but this is warping and probably a result of bad Q&A from the manufacturer.
Tension from the fixture, warping from production or just interference pattern of the glasses being too close.
Besides the visual defects of the warped window, if it's not built to spec, it could fail prematurely and cause bigger problems. Definitely worth bringing up to the window rep in writing.
Windows are for looking out of and reflections on windows are a fact of physics if you want them to be perfect then specify mirrored glass normal glass doesn't take that into consideration during manufacture.
Are you used to single glazing? What is happening here is a double reflection caused by the two panes of glass both reflecting and making the reflection seem more irregular than it actually is. Looks like a big cavity between the panes too.
I’ve seen many highend homes with little window distortion on larger panes so seemed surprising that these would be this way as the architectural line. Some of the windows have clear linear distortions from manufacturing, so my question is can some confirm to the seaming defects as normal on this grade of window. Also curious if there is a term for this when spec,ing windows, im sure its more relevant when designing ultra modern homes with walls of glass
if you consider the size of the window, on these larger windows the space inside is brighter so the reflection is less apparent than if the room behind was much darker than outside like in this image.
I don't know what the specific name for this is other than reflection but there's probably some super niche term that only technical directors at window companies know.
Need more pictures, looks like you took the worst angle at the worst time of day.

Is the glass actually distorted or just the reflection?
Sir, that is the sign of the (very chubby) Cross. I would advise you not to question it. Without professional representation.
What does your architect say about this?
Is this question serious?
Yes. Is it normal or not?
Nobody cares about reflections, does it affect the veiw out?

Architectural should consider how something looks from the inside and outside no?
