Importance of Glass Selection in Buildings

With the increasing use of transparent glass in facades and interiors, the correct glass selection also gains importance. In projects where correct glass selection cannot be made;
- Not being able to cool and / or heat the building
- Increased electricity consumption caused by artificial lighting due to insufficient amount of natural light,
- In the opposite case, the problem of glare in the interior due to uncontrolled light penetration,
- Risk of injury from human impact,
- Material losses as a result of attacks and theft attempts,
- Different problems such as physical and psychological disturbances due to noise may occur.
In addition, glass breakage may also occur due to reasons such as failure to determine the appropriate glass thickness or failure to make thermal breakage calculation. These problems, which are not possible to be solved later, can be overcome by identifying these problems by making the correct diagnosis and choosing the appropriate glass during the design phase in line with the needs of the project.

For the reasons mentioned above, it is of great importance which glass will be preferred in which thickness and for what reason. At this point, as your solution partner OPTİMAL ARCHITECTURE, we are trying to achieve the minimum cost - maximum benefit point in our projects with the "Glass Consultancy" service we offer project-specific.
At the same time in correctly analysed interiors;


- To ensure that daylight reaches the interior more,
- To increase the brightness level of the environment by reflecting the light with the use of mirrors and to make the space perceived more spacious and wider,
- By utilising the translucency of glass, frosted glass in different and modern patterns can be used to separate the two spaces,
- It is possible to add colour to the spaces with painted glasses.
