When it comes to selecting modern, minimalist windows, several design elements distinguish them from those linked to the past. Aesthetic features such as the color of the veneer, profile shape, and type of handle used, all play a significant role. If you’re considering new windows and want to ensure that it matches the clean lines and sleek design of modern architecture, there are a few factors to consider. Keep reading to discover our top recommendations for selecting windows that will perfectly suit a contemporary aesthetic.
Modern windows? Trendy colors!
When it comes to stylish windows, color is the first thing that catches the eye. Unlike the constantly evolving interior design industry, window trends tend to remain in fashion for several seasons. So, what are the trendy window colors for 2023, and which shades of PVC window veneers will architects be using in 2024?
In recent years, white has made a triumphant comeback. Minimalist white windows with slim profiles are an ideal match for modern architecture. Black and anthracite windows still hold their own as popular choices, but designers are increasingly leaning towards lighter shades of gray for their windows and doors. If you prefer a wood-like veneer, lightened wood or unsaturated colors are the most fashionable options.
Fashionable windows in matt veneer
Matte finishes have taken center stage in the window industry, marking a defining feature of the second decade of the 21st century. Unlike the years of glossy surfaces that once dominated the market, satin, and matte finishes have now become the preferred choices. At Oknoplast, we have taken notice and incorporated this trend into our product line, introducing seven new veneers in stylish shades of gray and white. Among them is the dark kitami veneer – a trendy gray with a visible wood grain pattern and a non-glossy finish. This combination adds character to an otherwise unremarkable window, making it a modern decorative element for both the exterior and interior of your home.
Trendy – minimalist profile
Pixel Windows Oknoplast
Do you pay attention to window profiles when choosing new windows? You should, because they play a major role in determining the overall style of the window. In the past, PVC manufacturers mainly offered profiles with rounded edges, but today’s window fashion has shifted towards profiles with a minimalist, modern look. Our OKNOPLAST Pixel collections feature profiles with sharp lines and edges, accentuated by the shape of simple glazing beads. Don’t be fooled into thinking that such profiles are only suitable for modern architecture; they can also “refresh” the appearance of older properties when used in construction from the secondary market. Don’t miss out on the chance to enhance the style of your home with stylish window profiles!
Current window trends – large glazing
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in windows and patio doors that offer a larger-than-life experience. Thanks to advancements in technology, these oversized glazings have become more accessible and cost-effective compared to a few years ago. Architects have seized the opportunity, incorporating these large panes of glass into almost all new residential buildings. At the same time, PVC manufacturers, like OKNOPLAST, are pushing the limits by introducing slimmer window profiles to increase the surface area of the glass. Their Pixel model, for example, features a proprietary profile structure that allows up to 22 percent more light to enter than standard windows of the same size.

Windows that delight – hidden hinges
Hidden hinges are a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of window joinery that can significantly impact the overall aesthetics of your windows. At OKNOPLAST, we understand the importance of a clean, minimalist look, which is why we use special tilt-and-turn hardware for our windows that are completely hidden within the window. This means that the hinges are invisible in the closed position, ensuring that they do not protrude beyond the window sashes. The result is a sleek, modern appearance that perfectly complements any interior style. Whether you’re renovating an older home or building a new one, our invisible hinges are the perfect choice for achieving the look you desire.
Fashionable and modern windows – aesthetic handle
Every detail matters when it comes to creating a stunning window that complements modern architecture. From the profile and glass to the hinges and veneer, every element plays a role in achieving the desired aesthetic. However, even the most carefully chosen components can be undermined by an unsuitable handle. That’s why OKNOPLAST offers a wide range of handle options, including the Pixel handles. Not only are these handles stylish and aesthetically pleasing, but they are also durable and comfortable to use. With a variety of colors to choose from, you can be sure to find the perfect handle to complete the look of your OKNOPLAST window.
