Hello!!
This
time I would like to introduce the usage of painted glass from a different
perspective. It’s the usage of painted glass in a “Toilet”, so, be prepared to
view “toilets” with style.
Painted
glass due to its superior ease of maintenance, is one of the wall material that
having more popular to be used in the toilet, especially in Europe.
Toilet
will look cleaner. Cleaning will be much easier, we can easily wipe off the
dirts. The glass smooth surface will help in the cleaning, just use a wet cloth
to clean it.

Toilets
need to look clean, don’t trapped in that thought though. Other than clean,
painted glass can provide calm and fresh ambience. Painted glass will dramatize
the space make it more pleasant and refresh environment.
It
can be kept bright by the reflection of the illumination space, unique glass
with reflection effect.

Painted glass will add sense of luxury in the toilet, even
compared to other luxury wall materials like granite, marble, etc. It is an
excellent choice to up the user convenience in
a toilet.

In Japan,
due to its limited space, many designers already started to incorporate glass
into their design. The usage of painted glass and combination with mirror is
one of the answer to make a wide space effect in a limited space of the toilet.
The reflection of the painted glass will brighten and give
spacious feeling. you can arrange the depth of reflection with lighting play as
well. Combination of both painted glass and mirror can strengthened the
feeling.

One of the benefit of
painted glass is its maximum size, up to 3048x2134mm in standard size. With
this large panel, you can have less joints for wall cladding. Its more
versatile to your design.

The
color in the painted glass will dramatize the toilet space, each color will
provide a different ambience, apparently white & black is the most common color, as the colors give
clean, cool, calm, and refreshing ambience.
Other
colors can also brighten the space, give the illuminating effects, and
combination with mirror will help to widen the space.
However,
the main feature of the painted glass is it ease of cleaning.
You
do want a clean and quite toilet to do your business, right ?
So, we hope its inspire you, let us know if you have any
inquiry….
Noted : the painted glass used in the
project reference is AGC’s Lacobel.
