Case Study: Deerfield Home Remodel by Craftwood Doors & Windows

We’re thrilled to share a stunning home transformation that’s close to our hearts. Nestled in the wooded areas of Deerfield, an ordinary residence has been reborn through the magic of large windows. This remarkable remodel, brought to life by our partners at Craftwood Doors & Windows, perfectly captures why we’re so passionate about what we do at OKNOPLAST. Let’s take a closer look at how expansive glass breathed new life into this home, creating a space that’s as inviting as it is impressive.

This once-ordinary home, nestled in a forested area and accessed by an asphalt path, has undergone a remarkable metamorphosis. The project centered on replacing old windows with OKNOPLAST’s PIXEL line of large windows and doors, dramatically opening up the space to its natural surroundings.

The remodel’s striking results are evident in the contrast between the before and after images. OKNOPLAST’s PIXEL windows, with their square frames in Jet Black, create a perfect harmony with the exposed brick walls. This sleek, contemporary look has breathed new life into the old residential structure.

The PIXEL line used in this project boasts several impressive features:

  • Low E argon filled double or triple glazing with U-Factor = 0.16-0.29
  • Warmedge glass spacer in black, brown, white or silver protects against condensation on interior surface of glass
  • Special engineered steel makes the profiles strong and durable
  • Inside window profile, for best thermal performance
  • Patented OKNOPLAST contemporary design
  • Glazing beads makes glazing replacement easy
  • Tilt & Turn low maintenance hardware

The transformation extends beyond just window replacement. The addition of a terrace further connects the indoor and outdoor spaces, maximizing the impact of the new, expansive views.

This Deerfield project demonstrates how thoughtfully chosen large windows can completely reinvent a home, merging modern design with energy efficiency and durability. The result is a space that feels both contemporary and timeless, perfectly integrated with its forested surroundings.

Benefits of Large Windows in Modern Homes

Large windows are revolutionizing modern homes, offering benefits that go far beyond aesthetics. They create an illusion of expanded space, making rooms feel open and airy while blurring the line between indoors and out.

Flooding interiors with natural light, these expansive glass installations not only reduce reliance on artificial lighting but also contribute to improved well-being, potentially boosting mood and energy levels. They transform your view into a living work of art, connecting you with nature and your surroundings in a way that smaller windows simply can’t match. This connection to the outdoors, combined with the clean lines and openness of large windows, defines the essence of contemporary design, making them a key element in modern architecture.

Surprising Energy Efficiency

Here’s where OKNOPLAST windows really shine. Despite their size, our large windows offer excellent thermal efficiency. How? It’s all in the details:

  • Our triple-glazed options provide superior insulation
  • Low-E coatings reflect heat back into your home in winter and keep it out in summer
  • Argon gas between panes adds an extra layer of insulation
  • Warm-edge spacers reduce heat transfer around the edges of the glass

These features work together to keep your home comfortable year-round while potentially lowering your energy bills. It’s proof that you don’t have to sacrifice efficiency for style when you choose the right windows.
