Why Spandrel?

Spandrel's primary function is to cover materials or construction elements from being viewed from the exterior of the building. Examples of such areas include areas between floors, hung ceiling areas, knee-wall areas below vision lights, and sometimes even columns or partitions. Aesthetically, it can be applied in two ways. One is to contrast the appearance of the vision panels through the use of color, while another is to match it with the vision area, so that from the outside the structure maintains a uniform glass skin making it virtually impossible to distinguish where the start and finish of the window and wall. - Glass On Web.com
