Disclosed is technology addressing lighting issues using a signature perforated design diffuser panel that provides a dual purposeartistic and artificial light source. Stated differently, the disclosed technology provides diffused lighting while creating a signature geometric perforated pattern. When turned off, the technology is wall art, and, when turned on, it is wall art that provides a signature lighting experience. Embodiments also include the same diffuser technology used to modify and condition natural light sources (e.g. sun light).

A glass panel (1), comprising: a first glass substrate (101), a second glass substrate (102), a spacer profile (103) at the periphery of the glass panel (1) between the first and the second glass substrate, the spacer being used to maintain an intermediate space (104) between the first and second glass substrates, the panel comprising an intermediate substrate (105) in the intermediate space (104) between the first (101) and the second (102) glass substrates, According to the invention, the panel comprises means to suspend (10711, 10721, 053, 110) the intermediate substrate (105) within the intermediate space (104).

A window system is provided that includes an electro-optic element having a first substantially transparent substrate defining first and second surfaces. The second surface has a first electrically conductive layer and a second substantially transparent substrate defines third and fourth surfaces. The third surface has a second electrically conductive layer and a primary seal disposed between the first and second substrates. The seal and the first and second substrates define a cavity therebetween. An electro-optic medium is disposed in the cavity that is variably transmissive such that the electro-optic element is operable between substantially clear and darkened states. A polymeric dust cover is positioned away from the electro-optic element defining at least two major surfaces and at least one indicia disposed in the dust cover. The indicia includes a plurality of damage channels having an aspect ratio greater than about 10:1.

A window glazing assembly that can convert an existing or already-installed window, or be used to assemble new construction windows as a multi-pane or multi-glazed window unit, is provided herein. In particular, the glazing assembly includes an attachment assembly (e.g., peel-and-stick double-sided adhesive tape) and one or more glazing layers. Some embodiments further include a spacer assembly comprising a plurality of spacer bars that may be individually installed, e.g., one by one, around the perimeter of the window such as, to the window sash, window frame, or glass window pane, itself. The glazing layer(s) can then be secured or adhered to the spacer assembly, for example, around the perimeter thereof. Some embodiments may include additional or intermediate glazing layers, providing additional insulating airspaces and enhanced performance.

A multi-glazed window assembly is presented herein. The assembly includes a plurality of glazing layers arranged in a parallel relation to one another and defining at least one insulating airspace there between. The assembly also includes a perimeter spacer assembly and a resilient foam outer wrapping. The perimeter spacer assembly is attached along a length of an interior surface of the outer wrapping defining at least one interior channel. An intermediate glazing layer is mounted within the channel while outer glazing layers are disposed on opposing sides of the intermediate glazing layer and laterally spaced therefrom. The resilient foam outer wrapping then extends entirely around a collective perimeter of the glazing layers, thereby creating a multi-glazed window assembly formed with a gasket-like foam outer surface and with minimal seams and material.
