Archetype’s custom laminated frosted glass and mirror are ideal for separating spaces and creating privacy while maintaining light transmittance, or creating glowing effects with touchable texture in numerous applications.
From refined elegance to dramatic impact – our frosted glass solutions range from the subtlest whisper of texture to bold, statement-making surfaces that transform how light moves through your space while providing precisely the level of privacy your design requires.
Traditional surface etching creates beautiful frosted effects directly on the glass surface, offering controlled levels of opacity while maintaining the inherent strength of the base glass. From light acid etching that creates subtle privacy to deep sandblasted textures that provide dramatic visual impact, surface treatments offer precise control over both aesthetic and functional properties.
Our proprietary interlayer frosting technique represents a breakthrough in privacy glass technology. By incorporating frosted materials directly within the laminated structure, we create the soft look of frosted glass without altering the surface texture. This innovative approach allows for custom frosting patterns, gradients, and effects that are impossible to achieve with traditional surface treatments.
Creating glowing effects with touchable texture, our frosted glass surfaces invite interaction while serving functional privacy needs. The tactile quality of properly frosted glass adds a sensory dimension to architectural elements, making them more than just functional barriers but engaging design features that enhance the user experience.

Hand-crafted one-of-a-kind artisanal architectural glass produced with industrial efficiency – this philosophy drives every frosted glass solution we create. From the most delicate surface treatments that barely whisper their presence to bold, dramatic etching that commands attention, our range encompasses every level of privacy and aesthetic impact.
The option of frosting in the interlayer represents our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in architectural glass. This technique protects the frosted surface from wear while creating unique optical effects that change throughout the day as lighting conditions evolve. The result is glass that performs beautifully while maintaining its appearance indefinitely.
Every aspect of our frosting process is precisely controlled, from the depth of etch to the pattern of texture. This attention to detail ensures that each installation performs exactly as intended, providing the right balance of privacy, light transmission, and visual impact for your specific application.
our frosted glass solutions transform functional privacy requirements into opportunities for architectural artistry, creating surfaces that are as beautiful as they are practical.
