Most rooms in our homes are designed to enjoythe benefits of natural light, but in the bathroom, where privacy is a consideration, this may not always be a practical option.Dion Sanders of National Glass says glass blocks are a good solution. The blocks range from completely clear to fully opaque, allowing you to achieve the exact level of privacy you need.The glass blocks are available in a choice of patterns, sizes and colours, including capping blocks and variable-angle corner blocks, to complement your decor and design.

The hollow structure of the blocks provides excellent insulation, similar to that of double glazing, says Sanders."Glass blocks are also very strong, making them safe for use as full-height walls," he says.National Glass also specialises in the installation of glass blocks.
