Greetings, How is the glare of light controled during various times of the day? Christa, OSB

The translucent fiberglass insulated panels that act as the glazing control the light extremely well. They are actually tinted to admit only 30% of the daylight to the interior. There is a wonderful glow of light on the interior that is constantly changing with the sun, clouds, weather, seasons, etc.
