Designing with View Smart Windows frees you from incorporating shades and blinds, allowing you to show views and buildings in the most attracting way, while still meeting energy codes and building performance requirements.

View allowed us to minimize overall cooling loads, eliminate the need for blinds and reduce the use of artificial lighting while providing constant access to natural light and unobstructed views of the environment. Tenants feel great about the experience, and we remain excited by the future use of smart window technology.

Architects - Section Fred Pax - Quote

The tendency with blinds is that when the sun comes up, people will pull the blinds down. They’ll stay down for the rest of the day so the view and daylighting in the space is gone for the rest of the day too. With View, the glass automatically adjusts to the light conditions on the exterior and the daylight is maintained throughout the day.
