Glass, glass – everywhere we look. We’ve never had more glass in our office spaces than we do now. Office space commands a premium dollar amount. We are using glass as partitions instead of building out offices with two-by-fours and sheetrock. After all, every inch of square footage matters. Right?
However, more glass means less privacy. Full transparency isn’t always a good thing. Yet, discretion regarding work or personal matters remains a priority.
As employers seek solutions to lure their employees back into the office, creating a space with adequate privacy and an inspiring environment takes precedence. We all appreciate our space and privacy. So, how can we make those glass office spaces feel more personal? Think office door décor. And this includes all glass in the office.
Privacy film
When we think of privacy film, we often envision frosted films. But the options now available are far beyond anything we have seen before. From bamboo to whimsical swirls or polka dots, frosted films have taken on a life of their own. There are so many options you are sure to find something that fits into your company image, no matter how off-beat that might be.
Frosted privacy films make great office door window covers, as well as glass partition décor. They allow sunlight to transfer through the glass while reducing glare, particularly on computer screens. Additional attributes include:
- Effective UV protection
- Help to block IR rays that can cause fading to interior furnishings
- Provide interior design to glass doors, partitions, and windows
- Easy and efficient to install
- Removable, reusable, and affordable
Frosted privacy films have come a long way. The options are too numerous to count. The only limit is your imagination. You can literally create a world of your own within an office space.
3M™ FASARA™ film
Some decorative films are “a cut above.” The 3M™ Fasara series is definitely that. Historically, Fasara films have provided a frosted, etched cut, textured, and even sand-blasted appearance.
Their latest series for 2022 is nothing short of stunning and branches out in design. The line is inspired by Japanese paper. From quartz to marble, the latest Fasara line mimics nature in both an elegant and timeless style.
The Fasara series is upgraded annually so you have options that are both timely and classic. It also ensures that fewer offices are likely to have your same privacy film décor. Currently, there are over 100 decorative films to choose from in the Fasara line. Some options even mimic fabric. Designers “ooh and ahhh” over this line like no other decorative film. As a result, office glass films are becoming more and more popular.
3M™ Fasara Decorative Glass Film Attributes
- High-quality polyester film

Decorative films for glass doors or partitions are a great cost-effective solution for office interior design. They last longer than design trends tend to and are easily removed. Furthermore, the application is a seamless process that doesn’t require your business to be interrupted. Greater still is the ease with which you can reapply the latest trend should you desire to do so.
Graphics and Signage
Both graphics and signage have also taken off in office spaces and storefronts. Companies are implementing team building as a form of design. By taking company slogans and adding them to walls throughout the workspace, organizations are creating an environment of inspiration and unity.
Graphics that convey the company’s character are also used to motivate staff. This adds to the experience of those visiting the office or storefront. It allows them to better understand what the organization is about – what fuels their fire. In doing so the business tells a story that can’t be captured in a mission statement alone.
As our culture moves away from generic standards and more towards authentic experiences, companies are tapping into that. This method allows organizations to connect with both the public and their employees in a more personal way.
Any designer will tell you that creating an environment of tranquility and harmony only elevates the comfort and productivity of employees. Office glass film is an impactful and monetarily advantageous way of doing just that. It is the simplest way to get the most bang for your buck. Moreover, it’s worth the investment.
