For the Design & Research Institute Center, Tongji University Shanghai relied on an impactful lighting concept. Large-format, backlit panels made of PLEXIGLAS® Satinice WH10 DC provide uniform illumination and create a pleasant atmosphere.

The material used impresses with its velvety matte surface that meets the visual demands of contemporary architecture. At the same time, the excellent light diffusion of PLEXIGLAS® Satinice ensures homogeneous, glare-free illumination of the rooms—with no visible light sources or distracting hotspots.

 

This is how PLEXIGLAS® Satinice WH10 DC excels in this project:

  • High light transmission (approx. 70% at 3 mm), specifically for backlit applications
  • Dimensionally stable even after thermoforming, enabling custom designs
  • Robust, durable, and easy to maintain, even under heavy use

The Tongji University project showcases just one of many ways PLEXIGLAS® can be used in architecture. Discover more architectural applications:
