Hey Kathi...it would look fine in a single, in fact the architect drew up two options, this and a single with sidelights. I can't even remember why we went with the doubles...I honestly think it had to do with the relative ease of cramming the gigantic Christmas I insist on every year in the house! :) My husband wanted arch topped doors like Annie's, but our house is quite traditional, even though our doors really aren't, and I thought a transom would fit the house a little better. You can see blurry out the seedy glass...shapes, but not faces or details. It is nice for letting in light but gives you a tad more privacy.

Kaysd, I really don't know what you can see of another person. I live alone and my guests use a different bathroom. It is not opaque and the non-leaf portions aren't very obscure. In the full door shot, you can see about 1/4 of the right side is a corner at the end of the hallway on the other side of the door. That might give you an idea of what you can see. I don't think if others besides a partner was going to be passing by that I'd have used this glass. But it sure is pretty!

suzatwork: i have to say your floors have very much the same grain and variation in tone as my highly-coveted black walnut. they're stunning! i'm wondering how they take stain, since i'd like darker floors? my plan is to go with the walnut but i'll have to get some samples and check the amendoim out. i'll have to look it up, but also assuming this species would be harder than walnut... hmmm... GREAT! more for me to think about! thanks for posting your gorgeous floors.

I'm not home so I can't take a photo right now. I have a wall of cabinets like beaglesdoitbetter posted of floor to ceiling glass doors. My doors are Shaker, no mullions. This wall is across from the work horse part of the kitchen. Part of this area acts like a traditional breakfront you would perhaps have in a dining room where I store my fine china and display some interesting/decorative items, and some hold my cookbooks. I also store some other kitchen items that are rarely used and not pretty - soup pot, china in storage containers etc. Because of this I bought reeded glass. You see the shapes and colors behind the glass, but you don't see the fine detail. I also have glass doors on a cabinet which is part of my island - and it's the first thing you see as you head from the front door, through the foyer and hallway into the kitchen. I store some colorful items there so it adds interest. The wall corner cabinet near the stove/sink area is glass because I wanted to make this cabinet look "lighter". All my glass door cabinets have lights in them and the shelves are glass so the light filters through the cabinet. I thought I would enjoy having the lights in them and that I would use them often, but frankly I rarely turn them on and it was probably a waste of money. Cleaning glass front cabinets without mullions is really easy and quick. Even the reeded part is easy to wipe in an up and down motion. If you have a chance, visit a glass store to see your options. There are a lot of choices and some will work better than others given your style of kitchen and the effect you are looking for.
