How Projection Glass Transforms Modern Glass Facades into Digital Communication Surfaces
When people think of digital advertising, large LED screens, video walls, or classic digital signage usually come to mind.
But what if the building itself became an advertising space?
Imagine a modern city. During the day, glass facades reflect the sky. Retailers display their products behind generous shop windows, hotels offer glimpses into elegant lobbies, and car dealerships showcase their latest models.
After sunset, however, many of these buildings almost disappear into the cityscape.
Yet, they possess one of the most valuable resources imaginable: large glass surfaces in high-traffic locations.
This is precisely where Lumerax comes in.
The Problem with Modern Glass Facades
Glass is indispensable in today's architecture.
It provides transparency, natural light, and a high-quality appearance.
However, outside of business hours, the glass facade loses its communicative function.
The property remains.
The location remains.
Passersby remain.
Only the facade itself no longer communicates.
For businesses, this means an untapped opportunity to make their brand visible.
One Glass Facade. Two Functions.
Lumerax takes a different approach.
Instead of replacing glass with LED walls or altering the architecture, the same glass surface gains two completely different functions.
During the Day
The glass facade remains completely transparent.
Customers can see into the store.
Employees continue to benefit from natural light.
The original architecture remains unchanged.
At Night
After dark, the same glass surface transforms into a large-format digital projection screen.
Videos.
Animations.
Product presentations.
Brand campaigns.
All on the same glass facade.
How Does Projection Glass Work?
The technology is based on the interaction of several components.
Projection Film
A nearly invisible projection film is applied to the inside of the glazing.
It maintains the transparency of the glass surface while creating a high-quality projection surface.
High-Performance Projectors
Professional projectors project content onto the glass facade.
Depending on the project size, multiple projectors can be combined for a seamless overall projection.
Content Management
All content can be managed centrally.
New campaigns can be deployed within minutes.
Seasonal advertising can be scheduled automatically.
Videos, images, or animations can be updated at any time.
Where Can Projection Glass Be Used?
The application possibilities extend far beyond traditional retail.
Retail
Present new collections.
Promote seasonal campaigns.
Turn passersby into customers.
Car Dealerships
Emotionally stage new vehicle models.
Promote special offers.
Make the showroom visible even after closing hours.
Hotels
Make a lasting impression even before entering the lobby.
Digitally present restaurants, bars, or events.
Corporate Headquarters
Employer branding.
Recruiting campaigns.
Corporate communications.
Brand staging.
Restaurants
Seasonal menus.
Wine evenings.
Events.
Chef's recommendations.
Shopping Centers
Promotions.
Events.
Store openings.
Digital wayfinding.
All via the same glass facade.
Why not just an LED wall?
LED walls offer high brightness.
However, they also come with some disadvantages.
They permanently obstruct the view outwards.
They change the architecture of the building.
They require structural changes.
Projection glass takes a different approach.
The existing architecture is preserved while gaining an entirely new digital function.

The Future of Glass Architecture
Buildings are becoming smarter.

More communicative.
Projection glass transforms a passive glass facade into an active communication medium.
Not just for advertising.
But also for brand communication, events, recruiting, product presentations, or seasonal campaigns.
The glass facade becomes an integral part of the brand identity.
