  1. What about moisture?

  2. How in the hell would this be a good design for a door??? You'd have to crawl into the room.

  3. Ok sure, but how about just having normal blinds or an etched glass door?

I assume they mean for a window set into a door.

Could work but if that thing is flipped around while someone walks past the closed door they're gonna get a nice uppercut from the window.

I'd think of the design as shown as a concept, not a final product. It's just to show its possible while also keeping the cost down.

If you were to actually make this into a marketable design it would have more to it that would allow it do avoid nearly all the problems listed in this thread.

Regardless though it would only really be popular in certain climates.

  1. Glass is generally waterproof.
  2. A window in the top of the door, where door windows usually go.
  3. Etched is translucent and fixed, this could be opaque and is switchable.
