Glass Manifestation
Glass manifestation is a stylish and attractive way of putting information or design onto glass, showing patterns etched into frosted glass. For example, if you’ve just moved into a new office, you can place your logo or company branding on glass doors and partitions. However, glass patterns aren’t limited to offices, they can also be used for restaurants to display menus, shops to show information and hotels to present their company branding in stylish fashion. Traditionally, manifestation uses window film to produce a personalized window glass graphic. Company logos and corporate identity can be applied in a repeated format on the large glazed panels to reinforce the corporate identity and branding. The logo design is produced using a film that is applied to the glass or alternatively reverse cut out of the film panel. The manifestation takes the form once applied to the glass of an acid-etched finish dot, circle or logo. Designs can feature simple patterns such as dots or squares, or can also take the form of strips or bands.
