Slump glass for splashback... Let there be light !

I guess you could have a fixed window outside and the slump glass inside. But you would see the window framed behind the glass. Alternatively you could have your window glazed in slump glass, without a bottom reveal and run your benchtop into the window.

It's so tiny

How about installing some glass bricks outside?

I thought a sky window letting light from the ceiling would be a simpler way to light up the kitchen??

Where does the kitchen wall face?

Is it out to a court yard?
Does it face to the front street?

Let me know, I can think a couple of features you can use, but I need to know if it is visible from the street and main entry, usually not, but just to be sure.

If it’s nothing special, then you have the opportunity to make it special.

I would suggest a glass window on the opposite side of the glass plash back, the same dimensions as the splash back. Full light access, and decretive as well. The window doesn’t have to be anything special, the same as what you’re using throughout, or a little less. Inside the cavity you can put some imitation plants, long slender leafy ones.

From the inside you will see the outline of leafy foliage from within your glass splash back. Interesting and a point of interest in the kitchen, especially if you are using some sort of lighting above the glass plash backs.

This will be a first; I haven’t seen it done before, nothing like starting a new trend!
It won’t matter from the outside of your house who sees it, just noisy neighbours if they look over the fence, but it will be really neat from within the kitchen.

You don’t need many of the plants, just enough to give the outline of foliage.

What do you think?

pasey25….LOL

Well done, you have a creative mind and eye, I’d be interested to see what you do in your home.

So sorry to steal your idea!!!
