The innovative products designed by Nana Wall create openness and privacy using a single element. They are best known for creating glass walls for large archetectural space, to close off space from the elements but also enable light and nature to show through. The glass panels are set on tracks to allow them to open and close, in order for clients to create an all-glass room or an open vista, whatever their imagination fancies. The glass itself can be traditional, curved, colored or any other combination of effects to best bring out the beauty of the space. A company that uses light and space to create unique interior-exterior landscapes is one worth keeping your eye on.
