10 reasons why you should consider glass walls for your home

by Home & Decor  /   June 20, 2016

Perfect for zoning areas in the home where privacy isn’t paramount (aside from the handful of self-confident couples who opt for a see-through en suite bathroom), glass walls allow more natural light to pass through the home. Using glass in place of solid walls also enhance a space by giving it a lighter appearance – a useful trick for visually enlarging a tiny HDB apartment!

10 reasons why you should consider glass walls for your home

Glass doors for your en suite washroom allows you to have a sensual open concept bathroom but keep the area warm while you shower too.

Instead of replacing entire walls with glass, you can also retain some sense of privacy if you keep the bottom half of the walls solid.

It brightens up the common area when you replace the walls of a study with glass. Use black frames for a sharp, urban aesthetic.

Glass walls keep different zones in the home physically separated yet visually connected, as seen with this cut-out in the wall that divides the living and entertainment rooms.

These glass window shutters serve the same purpose, and it also allows more ventilation to pass through the room as well.

Open kitchens are visually enticing. But if you cook frequently, a practical option would be to opt for glass walls instead. With this, you can contain the smoke and have the feel of an open kitchen at the same time!

The removal of walls allows a space to appear visually lighter, and the use of full height glass doors for this study area lends this earth-toned home a boutique resort feel.

The full height glass walls here enable the home’s second floor to be flooded with as much natural light as possible passing through the façade.

A glass accordion door offers the option of semi-privacy for this study, and it can also be folded up to merge the room with the rest of the home.

Another way to use an accordion door to zone your home and retain full privacy is with frosted glass (with wire mesh for a vintage accent).
