Beauty of Nature Shines Through Architectural Glass Railing

We love our fall colors in Wisconsin, so building anything that could potentially block our view is unthinkable. With customers who specify Wagner architectural glass systemstime and time again, we know we’re not alone. For bringing the beauty and light of nature into your project, there’s no better solution than glass railing.

Humans have an innate need to connect with nature, and many architects design with that in mind. Design that takes access to nature into consideration, also known as biophilic design, has been scientifically proven to positively impact the lives of those who inhabit these spaces. Recent studies show that biophilic design not only benefits mood and well-being but it also can promote physical healing – one reason that hospital designers work to bring nature indoors.

Whether biophilic design is part of your project goals or not, we can all agree that being near nature and being able to view nature is an important decision to make when specifying your building materials – and that includes architectural glass. Let’s take a closer look at the benefits of glass railing using the words of some great thinkers as our inspiration.
