windowlessness
Lacking glass openings
Windowlessness is the state or quality of having no windows.
The term most often describes rooms, buildings, or vehicles that lack windows, whether by design or circumstance.
The windowlessness of the basement made it feel like a bunker.
It can suggest confinement, isolation, or deprivation of natural light, though some spaces are deliberately windowless for privacy, security, or climate control.
