I live in a fishbowl. My landlord won't let me fix it

I rent an apartment with floor-to-ceiling windows. Great light and view. Also, great exposure…

The street is close. People walk by. They look in. I feel like I’m living in a fishbowl and I can’t walk around in my pajamas or naked. I can’t leave dishes in the sink and I can’t just exist without feeling watched.

I wanted to apply window tint. Not dark limo tint. You know.. just something subtle or something that gives me a little privacy without blocking the light. I asked my landlord. He said no. He said the facade has to be uniform. He said tint would ruin the building’s appeal. He said if I do it, I’ll have to pay to remove it and might lose my deposit

I talked to a lawyer. He said the landlord is within his rights and the building is his. So the exterior is his, which means that I can’t modify it without permission

So I’m stuck. I don’t want to move. I like this place. I just don’t like feeling exposed

Someone suggested smart glass. I’ve never heard of it. Apparently you can apply a film that turns cloudy when you flip a switch? Or it’s built into the glass itself? I don’t understand. Can you retrofit it? Does it work on existing windows? Is it expensive?

I’m also looking at other options. Peel-and-stick privacy film? But that’s the same as tint. He’ll say no. Temporary curtains? I don’t want to block the light. Sheer curtains? Maybe... But they still change the look from outside. Would he even notice?

What about plants? A tall screen? A room divider? I just don’t want to break my lease or lose my deposit. And I don’t want to live in a cave
