Benefits of Decorative Film for Privacy & Aesthetics

Modern window film technology has brought remarkable capabilities to consumers, allowing end users to elevate both the aesthetics and functionality of their glass. Decorative window films come in a broad range of designs, textures, and colors. In this article, we’ll be presenting an introduction to several options to get you started.

Looking for Options?

Frosted Window Film

Frosted window film is a hugely popular subcategory of decorative film, and for good reason. It’s elegant, it’s functional, and it’s often available in a range of diverse styles. The translucent surface of this film diffuses light, obstructing visibility from each side of the glass without blocking out too much natural light. It keeps a space light and airy while providing needed privacy.

Frosted film is an ideal choice for bathrooms, office partitions, boardrooms, and any area where privacy is a priority. 

BENEFITS:

• Improved privacy to your preference
• Countless patterns and designs to pair with any aesthetic
• Custom branded options
• Ease of maintenance and a lasting, clean look

Patterned Window Film

Patterned window films add artistic elements that elevate your glass. Designs can range from subtle geometric shapes to intricate floral motifs, and may even be accented with personalized custom touches. Check out our decorative film viewer to browse some available standard options.

BENEFITS:

• Decorative elements to add to your office and storefront branding
• Varying degrees of privacy to your preference  
• Have your space mirror your company brand and identity

Stained Glass Film

Stained glass films represent the future of a timeless stylistic tradition. Like classic stained glass, these films offer both privacy and aesthetic advantages, all at a fraction of the price associated with actual glass replacement and high-cost stained glass. Stained glass film holds the power to transform both a building’s windows and its interiors, painting rooms in a glow of colored light. 

BENEFITS:

• An artful and elegant visual enhancement
• A beautiful filtration of light to a desired color
• Enhanced privacy 
• An impressive look at a fraction of the cost of stained glass

Choosing the Right Decorative Film for Your Windows

The three products featured above only cover a small fraction of the many possible styles available with decorative window film. With such a vast selection, choosing your perfect match can be a weighty task. Here are a few things to keep in mind when it’s time to make your choice:

Purpose — Determine the ultimate purpose of your film installation. Are you looking for privacy, aesthetics, or an even balance of both? 

Design Preferences — Look for films that will enhance your current visual style rather than distract from it. Consider how different films might complement the decor of your space.

Light Transmission — Think about the ideal balance of natural light for your interiors. Films with a lighter tint will increase visible light transmission, while darker tints may improve privacy. 

Customization — If you’ve got specific design, branding, or signage ideas in mind, talk with your film provider about customization options, as these may vary with different films.
