1. An insulated assembly comprising:
a first pane of material;
a second pane of material;
one or more monolithic insulating layers interposed between the first pane of material and the second pane of material, the insulating layer comprising cellulose and having a thermal conductivity less than 26 mW/(K·m);
a first gap between at least one of the one or more monolithic insulating layers and at least one of the first pane of material and the second pane of material; and
an active coating on one or more of the first pane and the second pane,
wherein at least one of the one or more monolithic insulating layers is greater than 90% transparent to light in the visible spectrum.
