How can I provide privacy, but still provide outside light and create a unique look?

This line features the ability to make use of natural light, but still provides privacy from outside passers-by. These blocks are functional and stylish, creating a unique look and something a more customized look than a regular window. (Bonus: With glass block windows you don’t need curtains!)

How can I create a custom look, but stay within budget using glass block?
Mixing frosted and colored glass blocks, using different sizes and/or patterns can create a one-of-a-kind design that will provide a unique, custom look for your home, but still provide light and privacy.
Can I use glass block as pavers?
You cannot use glass blocks as pavers, but there are glass “bricks” that can be used as pavers. The Vistabrik Glass Brick Pavers are a solid 1.5″ glass block for commercial and residential use. These Vistabrik Pavers are solid glass bricks that can be used for paths, accents, and with a grid system, for floors.
