Modern and minimalist architecture prefers large glass surfaces that have many advantages: great view, rooms full of light, visual increase of space...
Different purposes
Each building differs by local climate, building materials, orientation, size, etc. Every window of that structure has a different purpose. Bathroom windows must provide light and occasional ventilation but cannot be transparent. Roof windows should provide maximum light but pose little risk of forced entry. The terrace door, however, should be large, providing maximum view and isolation but also security. Modern glassing offers solutions for each of these needs, individually and in combination.
