AGNORA — Awake’s Partner for Luxury Architectural Glass

Awake is proud to partner with AGNORA / West Coast Glass (WCG) as our preferred supplier for high-end architectural glass. For projects that demand clarity, scale, and performance, AGNORA brings capabilities few fabricators can match—helping us deliver the panoramic, minimal-frame fenestration clients expect.

What sets AGNORA apart is craftsmanship at scale. They routinely produce ultra-flat, low-distortion glass in sizes up to 130″ × 300″ (and WCG up to 96″ × 168″), with edgework, laminating, CNC notches, and tempered or heat-strengthened finishes for complex architectural demands. That means we can specify huge, seamless glass panels and custom shapes without sacrificing optical quality.

Performance is equally impressive. AGNORA’s warm-edge spacer systems, argon fills, and advanced low-E coatings deliver thermal performance that helps our large glass-wall solutions meet strict code and comfort targets—often approaching near-triple-glazed levels even in double-glazed assemblies. They also offer the Ascent™ pre-equalized IGU for high-elevation projects, eliminating on-site equalization headaches.

Architects and homeowners who care about visual purity will appreciate AGNORA’s low-iron and anti-reflective options, which maximize light transmission and color fidelity. For acoustics, security, and specialty needs, AGNORA supplies laminated, SecureGlaze™ security glazing, custom frits, and bird-friendly solutions—so form and function are always in tune.

AGNORA’s project experience aligns with Awake’s ambition: they support whole-home packages, structural glass elements (stairways, fins, bridges), and complicated facade assemblies—backed by tight quality control, IGMA/Miami-Dade/EN certifications where required, and robust logistics for North American delivery. Their warranty and lead-time structure also make them a reliable partner for our schedules.

Recent examples of AGNORA/WCG work—projects like Solana Beach, Solana Beach – Awake Window & Door Co., and Desert Oasis, Desert Oasis – Awake Window & Door Co. showcase their ability to deliver striking, high-performance glazing in real-world builds that demand both scale and finish. These collaborations help Awake maintain our standard of “big glass” with minimal frames.
