There are too many design considerations to be made when writing a windowing system. It all depends on your application's needs. An example would be too big to type up here, but you could use the Windows user interface for inspiration.

Check SOLAR OS GUI code, my GUI is pretty much OOP and looks like windows

1)Try to convert from 32bts to 16bits...
2)You do not need boot / GDT/IDT and switch to protected mode
3)You do not need Keyboard/mouse driers (use BIOS/DOS)
4)You can use VESA to switchs resolutions and get a LFB for GFX

Loose some/win some ;)

I you really know what you are doing and want to do it ... i think it is easy

1) I am NOT a great man...

2) The source code released under GPL and some screenshots/info are here:
http://www.hostileencounter.com/os_main.html
or here
http://www.oby.ro/os_main.html

3)API Documentation is pretty scarce, i will try to improve that in the future

And of course i have a better version on my HDD, unreleased yet :grin: , working on it
if you need support let me know ;)
