Edge-Lit Colored Glass – Detail Mockup

Anthony and I went by one of our projects at the University of Denver to view a mock-up of the edge-lit glass panels. The trick is definitely getting the LED’s right up against the glass. I’ll take more pictures when the real panels are in and those include colored glass. This is part of our [...]

University of Denver Boettcher Center Auditorium – Patterning

However, we do have some project types that we particularly [...]
