The use of glass on the wall

At first glass material is rarely used as a wall or door material. The nature of glass is fragile and prone to rupture is the reason. But now, the glass material is popularly used as a wall. Especially in modern buildings house. Some people even apply to most of the glass wall of the house wall. But many are only applied on certain walls.

Nothing like that comes to mind, modern technology can make the glass stronger. Not easily cracked or broken. In fact it could be to step on. Such glass has an average thickness over 1cm.

Glass wall mirror gives a similar effect. Its function is not to reflect the shadow space, but rather on the "negate" boundary between spaces.

Glass-large transparent glass to bring nature into the space flow. If there is a green garden around the house, glass walls will provide a view into the room. With transparent walls, the boundary between outer space and in as missing.

Besides the above functions, the glass also allows much natural light in, illuminating the room in the house. Thus, in the afternoon for example, is not needed light on the spaces directly adjacent to outer space. Thus, electrical energy for lighting any space can be saved. At night, the glass can also bring the natural landscape into the room and make the room more romantic.

Note the negative effects

Given the amount of sunlight that may enter through the glass wall, to consider the laying of this glass wall. But avoid to install the glass in large sizes on the east wall of the house, even more so to the west. Both sides are prone to enter a lot of sunlight in the morning and evening. As a result, the room will feel the heat. Ideally, the glass walls of buildings located in areas facing north or south.

There are many ways of applying the glass wall. Frame to give the appearance of glass walls that are stronger and tidy. For those who do not like the glass walls framed, can choose the frame less or without frames. The concept of this installation is a bit inconvenient in terms of maintenance, because the glass embedded in the wall.

So it looks not smooth, clear, and perhaps even dangerous, try to give a flower or vine motif on the glass surface using a cutting sticker. Or if you have a hobby of painting, try painting on glass. Use a special paint glass, which can be found on the market. Glass so beautiful, and did not endanger its consumer.

The use of glass in the bathroom

Adequate storage areas are necessary in every room. Without a lot of stuff will be scattered and not in place. Provides storage in the room is relatively narrow, can be a challenge. In the bathroom for example.

Bathrooms are usually occupy land that is not too large. Though not a few are also items that require storage. Starting from the bath, such as towels to soap, shampoo, toothbrush, and so forth.

To accommodate all those bathroom necessities, prepare a closet. No need to imagine a massive wooden cabinet and looked heavy. Just think of modern design, lightweight, and transparent.

You can use the glass as shelves and closet doors. Complete storage with lights on top. Be a storage area that fits for your bathroom.

Glass also can be used for your bathroom walls. Glass is always telling impression brings light, airy, spacious, bright, and so forth. Yet the bathroom area, which is generally narrow, really need it. The reason, especially if it were not for the transparent nature of glass, which must have worried the activity could bathe in voyeur people.

Yet the real problem rather than on glass applications. But the choice of glass type and placement. If the bathroom directly adjacent to the page, you can also put the glass wall. No need to worry about spy, because the glass used is not transparent. Sandblast glass with slightly opaque surface was applied here. Let frosted, glass is still carrying out its role properly. Glass still enter the sunlight and give the impression of light.

Still not convinced with the "security" your privacy, despite already choose glass sandblast? There is no way the next, leafy plant that is put in front of the glass wall, on the outside the home. Thus, the walls of glass became more closed. The risk, so sunlight cannot enter with a maximum.
With two this way, no need to hesitate anymore creative with glass, in the bathroom.
