Advanced Glazings to Host Savannah Open House Showcasing Solera Reserve™ - A New Benchmark in Luxury Residential Daylighting
SYDNEY, NOVA SCOTIA and WILMINGTON, NC - January 15, 2026 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Advanced Glazings Ltd., the global leader in high-performance translucent glazing, today announced a public open house event to mark the residential debut of Solera Reserve™, its most advanced and design-forward daylighting solution to date.
The event will take place on March 27, 2026, from 3:00 to 6:00 PM EST, at a Midtown Savannah residential site - one of the first completed Solera Reserve™ residential installations worldwide. The home will serve as a living, walk-through demonstration of how the material transforms light, privacy, and comfort within a thoughtfully designed residential environment.
The open house is intended as an in-person introduction of Solera Reserve™ to the Savannah design community and will bring together architects, builders, media, members of the Advanced Glazings team, and friends and neighbors for an afternoon of conversation, learning, and exploration. Guests will enjoy refreshments, a formal presentation by Dr. Doug Milburn, Founder and Chairman of Advanced Glazings, followed by a guided tour of the residential installation.

A Residential First, Proven Where Light Is Most Demanding
Solera Reserve™ brings to residential design the same daylighting principles that have made Advanced Glazings’ Solera® technology a mainstay in museums, galleries, airports, schools, and cultural landmarks around the world. Positioned between clear and opaque building materials, Solera Reserve™ diffuses sunlight, minimizes glare, and delivers soft, uniform illumination throughout interior living spaces - without sacrificing privacy or performance.
The Midtown Savannah installation illustrates how Solera Reserve™ performs in a real-world residential context, particularly in sun-intensive climates where conventional glazing often creates heat gain, glare, and visual discomfort.
“There’s no better geography than the Southeast to demonstrate what Solera Reserve™ is designed to do,” said Dr. Doug Milburn, Founder and Chairman of Advanced Glazings. “This is a region defined by intense sun, heat, and glare - conditions where traditional glass either overwhelms a space or forces you to shut the light out entirely. Solera® doesn’t fight sunlight or block it; it harnesses it. It takes some of the harshest daylight conditions and transforms them into soft, usable, full-spectrum light that actually works for the home and the people living in it.”
Designed for Living, Engineered to Last
Solera Reserve™ delivers a combination of performance characteristics rarely found in a single residential glazing solution:
-
High Light Diffusion Power (LDP), converting direct sunlight into balanced, full-spectrum daylight
-
Thermal efficiency that reduces solar heat gain and eases HVAC demand
-
Acoustic performance that supports calm, quiet interiors
-
Durable, fire-resistant, all-glass construction with long-term stability
-
Extensive design flexibility, including custom sizes, shapes, colors, frit patterns, and zones of transparency
Whether used alongside, above, or adjacent to vision glass, Solera Reserve™ helps create residential interiors that feel open yet private, luminous yet controlled - all without the need for traditional blinds and shades.
An Invitation to the Design Community
The March 27 open house is designed to be both educational and welcoming—an opportunity for Savannah’s architecture and building community to experience Solera Reserve™ firsthand, engage directly with the Advanced Glazings team, and explore how advanced daylighting can be thoughtfully integrated into residential projects.
“This event is about bringing people together around the future of residential design,” added Milburn. “It’s a chance to share ideas, ask questions, and experience how daylight - when handled properly - can fundamentally change the way a home feels.”
