Window Safari: What openings?


Is the window an opening?

The glass material of the window is sometimes erroneously considered to be completely transparent almost to the extent when it seizes to exist. This is a study 
of the opaqueness of plain glass.
In broad dayligt a window pane reflects its surroundings, which means that in urban environments the glass - the very material breaking the vast material of the 
wall - could be mirroring another wall. The window becomes a membrane only open from one side, a one-way mirror that - from the outside - acquires the 
expression other building materials.
