Stained glass
Hi all,
I'm working on translating brochure for a renovated property in Barcelona from Spanish (ES) into English (UK). The phrase in question appears in the section about its stained glass.
"Las vidrieras permiten crear atmosferas de luz y espacios únicos, y también pueden sustituir con eficacia a la pintura para plasmar ciertas historias, leyendas y poemas, tanto por la ambientación como por la iconografía."
I don't like "light atmospheres". Could anyone help with anything better please?
Many thanks :)

Spanish term (edited):
atmósferas de luz y espacios únicos
unique and distinctively lit spaces
I do not think that “illusions” works in the context of a brochure highlighting the features of a property (i.e., for either commercial or residential use).
So perhaps something like this.
