floor to ceiling glazing


Explanation:
(or floor to ceiling windows)
Glazing "a tutta altezza" means that instead of a conventional masonry wall, the room has a glazed facade. Your main man is technically correct of course, but I think "floor-to-ceiling" is a more standard expression for this type of design.
