Glass is a well-established protagonist in projects on different dimensional scales, from large architectural structures such as skyscrapers to furniture. The technical and aesthetic qualities that are still being reinvented and explored today are many: transparency, resistance, sustainability, safety, lightness and beauty. From Lina Bo Bardi to Shiro Kuramata, the list of stars who have experimented with innovative glass solutions is very long.

A century has passed since Mies Van Der Rohe joined the Novembergruppe, an association of artists formed in Germany in 1918 with the aim of creating an art that would meet the living and working needs of the people. His first reflections on the use of glass for the construction of rarefied and apparently light volumes, which would later become the architect's favourite solution, date back to this period. As we know, his thinking and his works were destined to change the world of architecture forever.

AGC is a recognised partner for architects and interior designers who want to combine quality and reliability in their projects. Specialising in the production and processing of flat glass for the construction industry, the company also makes its expertise available for the enhancement of interiors.

AGC offers a wide variety of products and solutions to meet all modern needs and to represent the contemporary multifaceted concept of limits: glass can be evanescent and sober and let the other elements of the interior speak for themselves, or it can become material and the protagonist of the space. The company presents four lines of products that combine aesthetics and performance to create customised projects that enhance environments with decorative motifs of distinctive aesthetic impact and colours that imbue glass with unique depth and chromatic intensity. These are: Imagin, Stratobel Colour, Lacobel and Matelac.

Imagin moulded glass always offers the right balance between privacy and luminosity, and is the ideal product for meeting rooms, doors, partitions, furniture and showers, as it lets light in without clearly revealing the interior of the space, enhancing the environment with its decorations. Imagin is available in a variety of formats, sizes and thicknesses and in a range of different standard motifs that can be linear such as Niagara, Flutes, Wired or decorative such as Bamboo, Eclipse, Diamante.

Stratobel Colour is a range of laminated safety glass that combines aesthetics with high performance. The product family allows for a high degree of customisation and is available in eight colours: two translucent white shades that let light through and protect against prying eyes, two completely opaque shades (one white and one black), two shades of grey and two shades of brown that allow endless combinations of nuances inspired by nature. Several films of the same colour can be added to the glass, changing the level of transparency but keeping the natural light input unchanged. By integrating solutions from the company's extensive range with coloured films, we are able to combine aesthetics, high safety performance and other functions, such as solar control, thermal insulation and soundproofing, in the same glass.

With its dual Lacobel and Matelac range, AGC offers a wide palette of contemporary colours that follows the main contemporary trends analysed by the AGC Deco Academy. The company offers 24 shades for the Lacobel range of glossy back-painted glass and 15 shades for the Matelac range, which features matt colours. A palette that broadens the creative opportunities, making it possible to combine glossy and matt effects, both with tone-on-tone combinations (10 colours are shared) and with effective chromatic contrasts. To make a project even more unique, AGC offers the exclusive MyColour by Lacobel/Matelac service for architects and decoration professionals to create a tailor-made colour that perfectly matches their creation.
