Advanced Film Solutions are experts in collaborating with our clients to design custom architectural window film solutions.
We begin with the ability to offer every decorative window film solution.
Frosted films of all types from 3M, LLumar Illusions, Madico Decolite, Solyx and more.
There are a wide range of applications from a simple privacy solution for ground level bathroom windows to detailed branding solutions for commercial offices, conference rooms and storefront applications.
Glass is a staple of modern architecture. It opens up spaces, invites natural light, and creates a sense of connection. However, glass also presents two major challenges: privacy and personality.
Whether you’re managing a high-end corporate office or curated living space, the “fishbowl effect” can be a real drawback. That’s where the expert installers at Advanced Film Solutions come in. By utilizing industry-leading materials like 3M Fasara, 3M Di-Noc, and Solyx, we help clients transform plain glass into a functional work of art.
Curb appeal is a primary concern where shelving needs to be obscured.
Our decorative films transform clear glass to sand blasted, clear frost or rice paper appearance.
Here is why decorative frost films have become the go-to solution for modern glass transformation.
1. Privacy Without the Darkness
The most common reason for choosing frost film is the need for seclusion. Traditional solutions like blinds or heavy drapes solve the privacy issue but at the cost of natural light.
At Home: Decorative films provide elegance for bathroom windows, front door sidelights, and glass shower enclosures without making the room feel closed-in or dark.
In the Office: Frosted films are perfect for conference rooms, glass-walled offices, and partitions. They obscure the view of sensitive meetings while keeping the workspace bright and energetic.
Our decorative designer film team of experts has completed hundreds of customized solutions throughout the bay area.
Elegant frosts:
The frost film series ensures privacy and diffuses light without compromising brightness, allowing it to deliver on design goals for a fraction of the cost of etched glass.
Graphic patterns:
Our patterned film styles are available in designs ranging from playful dots to classic pinstripes. Match your décor and design aesthetic with varying levels of translucency, including opaque white patterns.
Modern gradients:
A match for current design trends, each of the unique patterns in this series transitions from clear to opaque. Gradient films are a smart solution to partially block out views, selectively hide unattractive areas or add a fresh design element.
Realistic textures:
2. High-End Aesthetics at a Fraction of the Cost
Authentic etched or sandblasted glass is stunning, but it is also permanent and incredibly expensive.
Adaptability: Unlike etched glass, window film can be updated. If your branding changes or you want to refresh your home’s interior design, the film can be professionally removed and replaced.
Versatility: With brands like 3M Fasara, you can achieve the sophisticated look of etched, treated, or textured glass for a fraction of the replacement cost.
Customization: From classic “dusty frost” to intricate geometric patterns or organic rice-paper textures, the design possibilities are virtually limitless.
Distinctive specialties:
3. Branding and Professionalism
For commercial clients, glass is a blank canvas for brand identity. Using films like 3M Di-Noc or Solyx, we can incorporate:
Zoning: Creating distinct areas within an open-concept office using different patterns or densities of film.
Corporate Logos: Subtle, “ghosted” logos on glass entryways.
Visual Interest: Breaking up large expanses of glass with “distraction strips” that prevent people from accidentally walking into doors while adding a sleek, modern motif.
Conference room privacy is a common application. Our designers develop the perfect solution with our client’s goals matched to the specific choice that meets and exceeds their requirements.
Let’s work together to match the right designer film to your project.
