Glass House

Every culture has their limits when it comes to the privacy of their home. In some places people don't rely on fence to secure their home and privacy from prying eyes. In other areas people put up tall concrete walls which are sometime even taller than the house. A lot of circumstances are considered which determines how open people are with their homes.

In my country most people usually put up fences around their houses to prevent others from entering the premises of their home. It also serves as a way for them to prevent others from seeing what happens inside the premises. Since the majority of the homes here have small lots, almost all homes maximize the lot for their home which in turn lessens the easement between the house and the road.

I always wanted to live in a house which has a lot of glass. I've made a lot of conceptual designs but most of these designs are too expensive and are inapplicable here in the Philippines. Asides from security, you'll need to have a large lot in order to keep your privacy from your neighbors.



I've compiled a few glass house designs which caught my interest. Although I wouldn't want to live in some of these houses, the designs still captured my interest since they are daring, unique and innovative.

  3. link The nature of glass pool fencing affords near uninterrupted views of your surroundings, but its see-through quality can create a stark effect that would benefit from a little softening up.

  5. Glazing forms the weathertight seal between your window's glass and wood, but it wears down over time. If you have an old house, it might be time to redo the glazing. Here's how. Glazing is the name of the hardened putty that creates a weathertight seal on the exterior of the window between the wood and the glass.Double Glazing

  6. In the dining room, a rug should be large enough to allow space for chairs, even when pulled away from the table. Measure your table and add approximately two feet, or sit in one of your chairs yourself and measure the distance from the table. www.homelooks.com
