CARVART<\/a>: C1
<\/b>Offering fresh motifs for architectural glass, CARVART\u00ae\u2019s C1 (also shown at top) is a collection by award-winning Ferreira Design Company consisting of 12 etched designs which range from herringbone and seemingly hand-drawn line patterns to irregular varied-sized dots and prism facets. Pattern scale, glass color, transparency, and reflection can all be customized. Each design is named for Brooklyn neighborhoods, paying homage to CARVART\u2019s beginnings in the New York City borough.<\/p>\n

Nathan Allan Glass Studios, Inc.<\/a>: Crackle Glass<\/b>
Uniquely resembling cracked, partially melted ice, Crackle Glass is created using a special fusing and laminating process with three layers of various glass types laminated to mirror. As light enters the multilayered glass front and reflects back out, the surface sparkles much like brilliant diamonds, making it an ideal cladding finish. Available in a maximum panel size of 18 square feet, the \u00be-inch-thick product can be specified with clear, low-iron, aqua blue, blue, blue and aqua blue combination, black, or bronze glass to achieve different effects.<\/p>\n

Skyline Design<\/a>: Patricia Urquiola Collection<\/b>
Milan-based Spanish designer and architect Patricia Urquiola devised three abstract patterns which can be etched on one or both sides of the glass to meet different aesthetic and obscuring needs. Cipher, available in four palettes, uses a series of symbols resembling typography dingbats to form randomized pixelated patterns. Check, a dashed-grid interrupted by diagonal lines, comes in eight color combinations with or without a gradient effect. And Overlay sports overlapping diagonal, horizontal, and vertical stripes, as well as parallelograms, to create an optical, dimensional appearance; it\u2019s offered in five palettes. All three can be etched on low-iron tempered safety glass; additionally, Cipher and Check can be specified with clear, tempered safety glass.<\/p>\n

Pulp Studio<\/a>: Metal Network<\/b>
The laminated low-iron glass of this collection incorporates metallic-printed interlayer patterns which range from plaids to gradient dots and scattered specks. Also available with mirror glass, the panels measure up to 60 inches wide by 126 inches high and come in five thicknesses.<\/p>\n

Livinglass<\/a>: Fresh
<\/b>This value line offers a non-laminated, single sheet of clear or white-finish glass (100-percent recycled also available) etched with any of 16 patterns, ranging from a graphic representation of topography lines to organic silhouettes. Same or different patterns can be etched on the reverse side, and in different scales, to create unique compositions. The etching is completed in a choice of White, Mirror\/Coppergold, Platinum\/Coppergold, or Yellowgold\/Coppergold tones. The product is Class A fire rated and UV, water, and chemical resistant.<\/p>\n

Bendheim<\/a>: VintageWire<\/b>
For some of us, this retro glass style is nostalgic, evoking the wire-glass windows of the doors in grade-school corridors. Originally developed in the late 1800s as a safety glass, the industrial style is today frequently used as a decorative element for walls, doors, windows, and even case goods. Bendheim embeds traditional, real chicken wire within \u00bd-inch-thick laminated glass. Textured and mirrored glass options are also available.<\/p>\n

Walker Glass<\/a>: Walker Textures Transition
<\/b>Walker now offers architectural glass that\u2019s etched to admit ample natural light while providing privacy. Two styles are available: just as it sounds, True Fade transitions subtly from a translucent to fully transparent surface, the \u201cfade\u201d area specifiable between four and 15 inches; and Gradient, meanwhile, presents the same effect, but with visible increasing- and decreasing-diameter dots for a more graphic appearance. Both of these can be applied horizontally or vertically. The maximum sheet length is 142 inches for True Fade and 128 inches for Gradient; both are suitable for exterior or interior walls.<\/p>\n
