Modern glass buildings have redefined the architectural landscapes of urban India towards transparency, modernity and globalization. Glass contributes a whole new level of aesthetics, energy efficiency, safety, security and comfort to the buildings of today. In India too, the preference for glass is evident in every urban horizon.
