Privacy around the way you use the space

Residential

Privacy where windows face the outside world.

For a San Francisco street-facing room or an East Bay home with nearby neighbors, smart film can offer visual privacy without permanent frosting. Bathrooms, bedrooms, and home offices are useful applications. If your windows have divided panes or unusual frames, photograph each section so we can review the film layout and connection points.

Commercial

Meeting rooms, from the Financial District to the Peninsula.

For a financial or professional office in San Francisco, a Peninsula meeting room, or a South Bay workplace, consider which glass panels need privacy during conversations or presentations. Multi-room projects benefit from early decisions about separate control zones, power supply locations, and access for maintenance. Switching the film does not make conversations soundproof.

Plan before the walls close

Coordinate the building details before scheduling.

For a managed office or condominium, include any building approval requirements, permitted work hours, and access arrangements in your inquiry. We review photos and plans first, then coordinate inspection and installation steps. Share your facilities, contractor, or electrician contact when there are several people involved in the project.

Early planning helps coordinate wiring routes, power supply locations, and controls. Film application follows when the glass and site are ready.

Share Your Plans

From the frame to the final switch

The finishing details matter.

We plan how the film meets the frame, where connections sit, and how you will control privacy in daily use.

  1. 01

    Send your project

    Use the form below to share your city or ZIP code, photos, approximate glass sizes, and preferred timeframe.

  2. 02

    Review the scope

    We discuss suitability, film options, controls, and an initial planning range. You do not need final measurements to begin.

  3. 03

    Arrange an inspection

    After the initial review, contact us to agree on a site inspection. We verify measurements, wiring, and access before confirming the final quote.

  4. 04

    Confirm and install

    Once the scope and quote are approved, we coordinate installation, test the system, and explain operation and care.

An inquiry is not an appointment booking. Inspection and installation dates are confirmed directly with Obscura.

Planning a San Francisco Bay Area Project?

A few practical answers to help you plan.

Ask About Your Project

Yes. We review projects in Brentwood in the East Bay, as well as other Bay Area communities. Include your ZIP code so there is no confusion with the Brentwood neighborhood in Los Angeles.

Obscura is based in Southern California and serves projects across California. Bay Area inquiries are reviewed for scope, site requirements, and scheduling. We do not represent this service area as a separate local office.

A floor plan or room list, glass dimensions and photos, preferred control zones, building access requirements, and a target timeframe are helpful. Approximate information is sufficient for the initial discussion.
