Modern Exterior Design

New York, New Jersey, Boston, Philadelphia

Glass Block is an intriguing touch to modern exterior residential designs.

In the past, Glass Block has often been considered a traditional architectural element. Because of this limited view of its place in architectural design, the benefits of Glass Block would be passed over in some new residential construction. So the advantages of Glass Block, like hurricane resistance, security, and energy efficiency would be missed.

Because manufacturers such as Pittsburgh Corning have never stopped improving their product and adding more choices to stay up with the needs of its customers, Glass Block is an excellent choice to accent modern residential design. Glass Block uses light to enhance the stark impact of modern architecture.

With the different product choices, the home owner has the flexibility to mix and match producing an aesthetically pleasing result. Each product uses the light in a unique way. But, the practical advantages of Glass Block are not lost. No other product can use light with the energy efficiency and security of the Glass Brick.

Glass Brick brightens modern architecture with soft, natural light. They’re ideal for use in applications where beauty, light transmission, and protection against hurricane force winds and debris is also desired. So when you are considering changes in your living space, do not overlook the versatility of Glass Block. This incredibly practical material will enhance any modern interior design.
