Morphology

unaccommodated = accommodated (transparent) = un + accommodate + ed

Formed by the productive negative prefix 'un-' plus the participial adjective 'accommodated', so the meaning 'not adapted/ provided' is directly derivable.

Etymology

Unaccommodated is formed from un- 'not' and accommodate 'to make fit or suitable', from a root that meant 'convenient'. So, when something is unaccommodated, it has not been changed or set up to fit a person's needs.
