From the Field: Making Headlines with Backlit Glass Floor

GPI Design - Friday, September 09, 2011

We're so pleased with the progression of this backlit glass floor installation at the Dallas Convention Center Hotel, we wanted to share the on-site photos immediately! The project is another great testament to the importance of not only mock-ups, testing, and coordination from one source, but also to being flexible and ready on-site with an arsenal of lighting tricks.
