TARDIS Room Project: Wall Panels
 
Roundel Wall Panels

The roundel wall panels are constructed of 2"x2" framing sandwiched by 1/8" hardboard panels, with cardstock paper lining the roundels, and with white acrylic panel ("cracked ice") attached to the back. Roundels glow from fluorescent lighting fixtures attached to the walls behind the panels.

Since the building materials wouldn't fit in my car, I rented a U-Haul van for a couple of hours.
