Things are getting homely
SOLARIS glass blocks are ideal for creating cosy indoor surroundings
Creating a cosy atmosphere at home does not imply that you have to shut yourself off from the outside world. Quite the contrary: your home becomes the social centre of your life, a haven and retreat for friends, where you can cook together, play games or simply enjoy a feeling of well-being. This trend is referred to as “homing”. Because our homes have become the most important local recreation area, we now attach greater value to individual interior design – ranging from the kitchen, right up to the bathroom.

In the apartments of homing fans, we are enveloped in an atmosphere of comfort, cosiness and harmony. The individual living areas are no longer rigidly separated from one another, but the borders simply harmoniously flow one into the other. Guests immediately feel at home, and the foyer becomes a reception area, giving visitors a first impression of what they can expect to find in the rest of the house. The kitchen and living room become open-plan lounging areas where you can cook, enjoy your meal and communicate with friends and family. The bathroom also changes from a mere functional room into a true oasis, offering the inhabitants a relaxing haven.
Living with plenty of light and space for friends
Those who spend plenty of time at home and enjoy inviting guests set great store by a creatively designed home environment. With SOLARIS glass blocks you are able to realise individual design solutions in the kitchen, living room or bathroom. Here, for instance, the translucent building material can be used as a room divider between the kitchen and living area, serving the purpose of emphasising the rooms’ generous dimensions, in addition to providing pleasant lighting effects. The glass blocks are offered in a range of different colours, either completely translucent or satined. They ensure a unique ambience, thanks to the play of light that changes continually, depending on the incidence of light. Also when used as a light inlet or wall-element, glass blocks, with their unique properties, serve the purpose of emphasising each room’s personality and create a cosy atmosphere that you love to share with friends.
Wellness at home
With SOLARIS glass blocks, the homing trend can also be realised in the bathroom. Furniture elements in an elegant white or coloured shower walls made of glass stones provide an individual touch in addition to continuing the design element of lightness and the inviting atmosphere of the other living areas. Even small bathrooms thus change into true oases of well-being. However, glass blocks are not only ideally suited as an eye-catcher: they also ensure that unsolicited glances from the outside are prevented. For instance: with a translucent privacy shield, such as with the SOLARIS glass block Sahara Clearview– you can maintain your privacy and at the same time ensure that plenty of light can enter the bathroom.
Be it in the kitchen, bathroom or in the living room: glass blocks offer unlimited possibilities for creative design. Available in a great variety of different models, decors and colour variations, they offer countless opportunities for creating a cosy home – which can also be shared with your guests or simply be enjoyed in solitude.
