The semi-translucent sheets provided the perfect backdrop to display the illuminated forest images whilst providing a diffused natural light into the building.

The architect needed a product that would allow him to highlight the images of the illuminated forest, but also that was strong and durable in such a harsh environment. The pearlescent coloured Marlon ST sheets met all of his expectations and was the preferred choice between several proposed options.
