DESIGN
At GlassAround, we believe that design is the soul of every architectural project. Whether it’s a sleek modern look or a warm retro vibe, great design is all about balance, creativity, and precise coordination. Our role is to transform the architect’s or owner’s concept into a real, functioning structure — using glass, metal, and thoughtful detailing to shape a space that inspires.
🧱 The Art of Technical Coordination
Design starts long before installation. It begins with reading the blueprints, understanding the concept, and visualizing how each element — from windows to facades — fits together. Our design process includes:
– Visual presentations for early evaluation
– Detailed system drawings for Shop Drawings
– Engineering checks to meet local building codes, pressure loads, and material specs
Whether it’s replacement or new construction, residential or commercial, our focus is on integrating new products seamlessly into the overall architectural language of the building.
🚀 Design Drives Everything
From windows and glass panels to storefronts, railings, and sunshades – every item contributes to the final appearance. We ensure interior and exterior harmony, confirming that no visual or technical conflicts arise between our products and other structural elements.
We work closely with manufacturers to match custom RAL or anodized colors, and source materials from suppliers offering PPG finishes. When it comes to glass selection, we assist with samples: bronze, grey, silver, low-iron – whatever matches your light and visibility goals.

🌍 Design Beyond Aesthetics
Our design process also considers environmental integration. Projects near nature reserves or reflective areas may call for special solutions to avoid bird collisions or reduce sun glare. In addition, we help optimize for energy performance, matching glass specs to U-Value, SHGC, and even acoustic performance standards like STC and OITC.
Design is never static — it’s about creating spaces that look great, function perfectly, and respect their context.
🧩 From Concept to Construction
With GlassAround, your design journey is guided by experience, precision, and a deep understanding of both artistic intent and technical demands. Our team bridges the gap between creativity and constructibility — making sure the final result matches the vision and is ready for the next step in the project pipeline: Shop Drawings, Value Engineering, or Installation.
