Our contribution
SageGlass allows maximizing daylight inside and connecting with the surroundings, without having the inconvenience of too much light. This enables the incorporation of nature inside the building and connection with nature outside the building. Designing the facade with independent zoning allows the occupant to always have a pane of clear SageGlass to have view to the exterior weather, while controlling the sun’s glare or heat.
