Glass Technology

11/10/2008 8:28 AM

Guys,

Is any body know the latest technology in glass that can change a solid (like painted) glass to a transparant glass? My friend's office used it and its awesome. Once you saw nothing on the glass ('solid' like a back painted glass), but after turn on a switch the glass become a vision glass to the next room..

Please tell me what it is? (Yes, my -so call a -friend won't tell) Thanks so much

Hello rino syahrir:

I think 'Dreamglass' looks the best, and, has so many colours.

The 'Glassonweb' site is amazing. There are over 60 examples and lots of companies.

Hope you find something here you like.

Take care...................
