glass facade
Transparent exterior wall
A glass facade is an exterior building wall made primarily of glass panels, creating a reflective or transparent surface.
Common on modern office towers and commercial buildings, glass facades allow natural light while presenting a sleek appearance: The downtown skyline is dominated by buildings with glass facades.
Figuratively, a glass facade suggests transparency that may be deceptive—an appearance of openness that conceals what's inside.
