Contemporary Window Replacement Elevates Houston Home’s Architecture

When these Houston homeowners set out to replace the windows and doors in their Ridge Oak neighborhood home, their top priority wasn’t just performance—it was beauty. They were committed to finding a product that would feel like it truly belonged to the home’s architecture. But after exploring contractors, designs and proposals, nothing quite clicked—until they connected with the team at Pella Houston.

That decision made all the difference. The result is a space where form and function meet in the most elegant way—thanks to custom-fit Pella Reserve Contemporary windows and patio doors.

In the home’s living room, sleek floor-to-ceiling windows now anchor the space. The clean, narrow sightlines allow for maximum glass with minimal frame—perfect for showcasing natural light and views from the back of the home. It’s a modern aesthetic that doesn’t compete with the home’s architecture but complements it. 

The black exterior finish provides a striking contrast against the home’s white siding, while the interior finish ties in beautifully with the space’s neutral, organic palette. 

These aren’t just windows—they’re architectural features that make the entire room feel more expansive, connected and cohesive.

Just beyond the living room, a new hinged patio door opens onto the back patio. Its expansive glass and minimalist frame mirror the window design, creating a consistent visual rhythm across the rear elevation. 

But this isn’t just about looks. The aluminum-clad wood door delivers the durability needed to stand up to Houston’s climate while offering the high-end finish and customization options that set Reserve apart. The result is a door that opens easily, looks stunning and enhances indoor-outdoor flow for everyday living and entertaining alike.

One of the standout moments for the homeowners was how smoothly the project came together once they partnered with the team at Pella Houston. From initial consult to final installation, they felt their vision was not only understood—but made better by the team’s product knowledge and design expertise.

Working with Pella Houston, the homeowners were able to select a solution that honored their priorities—preserving architectural integrity, enhancing curb appeal and elevating the home’s most used spaces with timeless, high-performance design.
