Answer
Glass is used for its partial transparency, to connect a place with another without the barriers of a wall, also it is commonly used to let light pass through a place, so a specific place will be lighter, so the colors and the design will show, so the use of artificial electric energy is used less during the day, and the sunlight, or moonlight carries into the space.
