Etched mirror privacy window
The purpose of this wndow was to create total privacy from both sides as it overlooks the neighbour's garden but allow for diffused light. The client wanted something alot more interesting then plain opaque glazing. Having previously commissioned etched mirror wall panels, he chose to have this rather experimental multi layered window. Two layers of mirror have been sandblasted to reveal a clematis design. The leaves and stems remain as mirror. The design on the top layer has been repeated on the second layer as though mimicing a shadow of the first, but it is the leaves that are sandblasted. Two tonal light diffuses through the layers creating quite a dramatic effect. The mirror overlays opaqued double glazing with optically clear safety film over the top. Over all height 160cm x 105 cm
