The frame and its two shelves are frosted white acrylic, and through them are dropped a series of vertical translucent panels in orange, amber and pale blue. The panels pass the shelves rather than sitting between them, so each one runs from the top of the unit to the floor, and where two overlap the colour doubles and goes markedly deeper than either panel alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eColoured Panels Dropped Through a White Frame\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe overlaps are the whole design, and they only work if the panels are cast to a matched density. Translucent acrylic laid over translucent acrylic multiplies rather than averages, so a panel a shade stronger than its neighbour will dominate every overlap it appears in and the composition falls apart. Each colour is therefore cast in one run and checked against the others on a light box before any of it is cut. The white frame is frosted on both faces so it stays even and does not reflect the colours back into themselves. The shelves are slotted to let the panels through, and each slot is cut a hair wide so a panel can be lifted out without forcing - the panels are located by the slots, not glued into them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a unit for a room that needs colour rather than storage: it sits below a window without blocking it, and the panels throw their own colour onto a pale wall or floor when the light is behind them. Its length wants a long wall. Because the panels run to the floor the bays near the floor are divided into narrow slots, so it suits records, folios and flat objects better than deep ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Overlaps, the Panel Colours, and Assembly\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eReckon on 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke one. Panel colours are specified with the order and any of them can be left out, which changes the overlaps and is worth thinking about rather than leaving to chance. The frame can be supplied in a clear or smoked acrylic instead of frosted white. It arrives as a frame with the shelves bonded in and the panels packed separately, each one sleeved, since a translucent face scuffs more visibly than a frosted one. The panels drop into their slots on site in a few minutes and no tools are needed. Two people should carry the frame. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColoured panels dropped through a white frame belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; overlaps that deepen where two meet carry on into our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a low run of colour under a window joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e200cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrosted White Acrylic with Translucent Panels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54001617469787,"sku":"Y019","price":9378.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y019.jpg?v=1790882357","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/white-frame-acrylic-shelving-unit-with-colour-panels-200cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
