Narrow plots, big solutions: how PVC windows are transforming new urban construction
Date: November 28, 2025
In Mexico's major cities, the space available for construction has become increasingly limited.
Plots with small frontages but great depth are becoming the norm in urban and residential areas. These buildings, known for their intelligent design and maximum use of space, require materials that combine efficiency, comfort, and aesthetics.
In this context, PVC windows are positioned as a key ally in achieving functional, comfortable, and sustainable homes, adapted to the different climates and needs of each room in the home.
Trending architecture: the rise of narrow lots
The design of “tunnel-type lots” or houses with reduced facades seeks to make the most of the depth of the land. These homes are usually laid out vertically and linearly, with multiple levels or spaces visually connected through interior courtyards, skylights, or strategically placed windows.
Today's architects are committed to natural lighting, cross ventilation, and thermal and acoustic insulation, pillars in which the choice of windows plays a fundamental role.

It is an invitation to rediscover all the value that Deceuninck offers in terms of innovation, design, and sustainability.
Living room and dining room: In social areas where lighting is key, large PVC sliding or fixed windows allow ample light to enter without compromising energy efficiency.
Kitchen: Casement or projecting windows are perfect for allowing air circulation and controlling odors, while maintaining thermal insulation.
Bedrooms: In rest areas, PVC tilt-and-turn windows offer excellent acoustic and thermal control.
Bathrooms or interior hallways: Fixed windows with translucent glass provide light and privacy.
Idea for a first floor on a narrow plot of land
In addition to their thermal and acoustic performance, PVC windows contribute to more sustainable buildings, in line with global trends in responsible construction and energy efficiency.
These features not only improve everyday comfort, but also increase the value and lifespan of the home.
New constructions on narrow plots demonstrate that space does not limit design, but rather inspires smart solutions. Deceuninck PVC windows are an essential part of this transformation: adaptable, efficient, and aesthetically versatile.
