The Catholic Church has bigger windows and relies more on sunlight while the orthodox has smaller windows and more candles. Orthodox priests are allowed to marry, but only before they become priests. They're also not allowed to remarry if they divorce or their wifes die. There's no such thing as Purgatory in the orthodox faith.
Other than that there are many organizatory and arhitectural differences.
