Our team frequently works with clients looking for ways to complement their interior decor with privacy-building selections. Examples include conference rooms, phone rooms, human resources offices, and more. While floor-to-ceiling glass panes give the office a sophisticated look and feel, they create the so-called fishbowl effect. Today we want to discuss how to add privacy with etched and frosted vinyl graphics.
Counteracting the Fishbowl Effect
When glass surfaces replace solid walls, anyone inside the space is subject to scrutiny by those walking by. Depending on the foot traffic in the office, this could result in a productivity drop. In some cases, it makes the required privacy for sensitive meetings or work impossible. That is why some offices have opted for the installation of window treatments.
Unfortunately, they do not typically fit in with the overall ambiance of the location. Besides that, they minimize the natural light that permeates the office. Etched and frosted vinyl is a better option, mainly because it adds elegance to the glass panes and is fully customizable.
Custom Designed Vinyl Privacy Graphics
Check out the block of etched vinyl we recently installed at a client’s downtown San Diego office. Rather than featuring custom gray, it is custom printed with images that perfectly match existing office art. The result is a seamless integration into the office decor that looks like it is part of the overall design rather than a later addition.
Etched and frosted vinyl also contribute to the brand message of your office interior. For example, while some clients favor geometric shapes and similar graphics, others request that we incorporate the room’s use or a list of brand terms when designing the product. A great example is the use of a window word wall that lets us etch out specific terms but still provides the level of privacy for the space as you intended.
