Spring has sprung, moving season has begun.

When shopping for a new home, many families will cross their dream property off their list thanks to an unfortunately placed window or two, that offers a spectacular view of a brick wall.

Or on the flip side, many families focus on the overall layout or feel of a property, not noticing the awkward size, shape or location of the windows in their home until they settle in and struggle to find a suitable window treatment.


Stained glass windows offer an ideal solution in either scenario, by striking a perfect balance of letting in natural light while offering privacy. 

Unlike blinds or shutters, stained glass windows are completely customizable, styled to suit personal taste and decor. Each window is expertly crafted to fit only the space it needs to cover, effortlessly styling even the most oddly shaped windows. Different degrees of translucent glass allow for additional privacy or a more thorough disguise of unpleasant views. 

Its association with Tiffany lamps and old world and ecclesiastical styles lends a certain formal feel and reputation to stained glass that can seem decidedly unmodern. Yet, stained glass windows may be crafted in an endless array of colours to suit any style of design imaginable--modern, traditional or somewhere in between. 

But however modern the style of window, the rich history and tradition of stained glass as a craft, lends a certain elegance to it the to the most unconventional modern stained glass window design.
