Glass blocks are a combination of individual blocks sealed together with mortar. Most property owners use them because of the privacy they offer; the translucent, thick blocks of glass allow light into the room without letting people see through them. They were highly popular in the early 1900s, allowing early 20th-century factories and warehouses access to cheap lighting when the glass blocks were installed on walls and as skylights. Due to their unique functionality, glass blocks are often used in areas where privacy is a concern, such as bathrooms. They are also a good option for rooms that require just the right amount of light, including basements and kitchens. Modern glass blocks come in an array of styles and dimensions, making them an effective aesthetic element. However, some interior designers prefer other alternatives in terms of combining lighting and privacy. |
