How do you make your hallway windows opaque?

We are building an urban villa. We have a single floor-to-ceiling window next to the front door and 2 floor-to-ceiling windows on the floor above.

The two windows on the top floor are hard to reach: one is in the stairwell and the other is next to a small gallery.

Now our question.

On the one hand, we'd like to be able to look outside, but we don't want to be able to see the entire floor and hallway when the lights are on inside. Because there are no blinds on the windows.

There are blinds that are opaque from the outside, but you can see them from the inside with no problem. But because the windows are hanging "in the air," we can't reach them. It's hard to reach them and we think it looks a little modest.

Does that leave us with the only solution – to order windows not made of clear glass? Maybe you have a solution for us?
