Thank you.

The clear wall elements (or panels) tend to curve when you stack a number of
them. This makes building tall window panels more of a challenge, since they
need to be anchored by a rigid column.
For this church I chose not to fight the curve, on the end walls at least. I
just rotated the panel 90 degrees so the direction of the curve is as I want it.
The panel fits in tracks in columns that are a little closer together than the
size of the panel, so the curve is compressed slightly, exaggerating it.

For separating plates.

It looks like a flat sheet of windows that has been bent in the pictures, I can't see any offsets to make it curve. My wife wants to know why (...)
