Project Description
Eastlake Studio specified approximately 1,000 square feet of our Houdini™ micro-ribbed glass in laminated safety form for a range of applications. The glass appears in full-height office partitions, meeting rooms, as a feature in the break room, and as booth dividers. The finely fluted privacy glass “miraculously” achieves several contradictory objectives. It combines a timeless linear aesthetic with a dynamic, modern optical quality. It also establishes visual privacy while allowing high quality natural daylight to fill the core of the space.
Testimonials
From the Architect:
“Our design team was drawn to Houdini glass because it creates a unique blur effect that is different from other fluted options. The combination of the vertical flutes and the horizontal striation creates a dynamic visual which allows natural light in, but also created division and privacy. In addition to being aesthetically interesting, the glass filters light in, while keeping a focus on what is in the foreground, and limiting distraction beyond.” — Emily Koss, Technical Designer, Eastlake Studio
