Have you all discussed any ideas about having so much visibility into the kids area? It seemed to me that the current level of transparency might be a bit distracting to both the kids and everyone else.
Because of its huge visibility right when you walk in, it could easily create a design tone for our entire space that we might not want. Bright oranges, greens, and purples in a kid-friendly design doesn't move me the same way it does Kiah or Laney.
I'm not suggesting changing the interior design of the space, only how it translates to the space as people walk into the church. I think this could be done very successfully with frosted glass film. There would still be enough visibility, but a clear separation of spaces. I attached a few examples of the very huge amount of design choices available with this medium.

I think that's a great idea. Those window portions of the glass walls could be left open/clear. I wonder if there's a wide enough variety of affordable films that will fit the design theme.

Hillary and I have talked about some options to reduce visibility into (I don't want everyone walking in to see exactly what my kids are doing!) & out of (the kids need to focus on what is going on in class) the space. The latest thing we discussed was similar to this. I think it is a good idea.

Yep, definitely like those ideas! We will come up with something to keep our bright colors to ourselves!  |

The cool thing about films is you can customize them and have them printed. In terms of affordability, it is one of the cheapest options available.

That was the idea behind the wall extension within the room. I'm liking this idea though. Seems more practical. Having never seen this, my only hesitation is that stick on frosted glass could look cheesy? I can't remember, is the outer facing glass smooth, or will we have to measure and cut the film to fit in all the extruded surfaces of display the boxes and such?

It is common for the companies who fabricate to also do installation. |
