Zusammenfassung:	An insulated glazing unit (IGU) including a first outward-facing panel, a first tint-adjustable liquid crystal layer, a second haze-adjustable liquid crystal layer, and a second inward facing panel. The liquid crystal layers are positioned between the first panel and the second panel. A method for controlling an IGU, includes independently controlling a tint level of the first liquid crystal layer; and independently controlling a haze level of the second liquid crystal layer. A method for installing an IGU, includes installing the IGU embodied herein to have the first panel facing an exterior of a building; and the second panel facing an interior of the building. L'invention concerne une unité de vitrage isolée (IGU) comprenant un premier panneau faisant face à l'extérieur, une première couche de cristaux liquides à teinte réglable, une seconde couche de cristaux liquides à trouble réglable, et un second panneau faisant face à l'intérieur. Les couches de cristaux liquides sont positionnées entre le premier panneau et le second panneau. Un procédé de commande d'une IGU comprend la commande indépendante d'un niveau de teinte de la première couche de cristaux liquides ; et la commande indépendante d'un niveau de trouble de la seconde couche de cristaux liquides. Un procédé d'installation d'une IGU comprend l'installation de l'IGU selon l'invention pour avoir le premier panneau faisant face à l'extérieur d'un bâtiment ; et le second panneau faisant face à l'intérieur du bâtiment.
