Summary/Abstract: The glass age is flourishing in the architecture industry. The role of glass has evolved and strengthened over the years to make it one of the most important building materials for humanity. The emergence of different glass processing techniques is expanding the capabilities and the application of the material in the field of architecture and design in the context of digital humanities. Cultural heritage finds its application in modern times by being transmitted through digitalisation on glass media. Permanent works of art, symbols of antiquity and classical texts are displayed on glass by the method of image transfer. The transparent building material has virtually unlimited aesthetic capabilities, combined with exceptional features. In architecture, serigraphic glass in the context of digital humanities is used for windows and showcases, facade coatings, individual architectural details. In the interior, photo-transmitted image glass is used for partitions, glass floors, stairs, roof glazing and glass bricks. The natural simplistic visual access to classical works by mean of digital instruments determines their immediate application as social and psychological keys for communication in the field of design and architecture.
