Plexiglass and Acrylic: Translucent Layers

A translucent acrylic panel. The color is a faint amber, smoky gray, or fluorescent orange, about one centimeter thick, with the cut edge glowing due to light guiding; through it, blurred shapes and lights behind are visible. The panel has an array of laser-cut or machine-drilled circular holes, and etched scale lines. The surface shows subtle hazing and scratches from use. Avoid: using completely clear glass, using high-chroma vibrant transparent plastic, having a perfectly clean and scratch-free panel, making the acrylic into a large-area wall.

一片半透明的壓克力面板。顏色是淡淡的琥珀、煙燻灰或螢光橘,厚度約一公分,邊緣的斷面因為導光而發亮;透過它可以看到後方模糊的形體與燈光。板材上有雷射切割或機械鑽出的圓孔陣列,以及蝕刻的刻度線。表面因為使用已經有細微的霧化與刮痕。避免:使用完全清透的玻璃、使用高彩度的鮮豔透明塑膠、讓面板完全乾淨無刮痕、把壓克力做成大面積的牆。
