Texture.
A surface that holds the light.
Material & architectural perspectives
Furniture
Material, at a human scale.
At the scale of furniture, the edge of glass is as visible as its surface. A table, cabinet or display brings the material close to the hand and eye, making proportion, junctions and the objects around it especially relevant.
Why decorative glass here.
Colour and reflection can give an object a different presence within the room. A decorative plane may form a focal point or sit alongside timber, metal and fabric as one part of a material composition.

↗Design considerations
From a visual idea to an application.
Color and Texture offer distinct approaches to a smaller surface. A linear pattern may relate to joinery, while a mineral visual direction can connect an object to the wider interior palette.
Human scale
Review the material from the positions in which the object will be used. A seated view can be quite different from a standing one.
Edges and support
Discuss exposed edges, support locations and the intended use. Confirm dimensions and build-up with the furniture and project teams.
Objects and lighting
Include the items that will sit on or behind the glass when reviewing colour, reflection and surface detail.
