Project Description
The vibrant entry feature of this forward-looking medical research facility at the University of Missouri was created with Bendheim’s TurnKey™ Fusion Light Wall system, featuring translucent white laminated glass designed specifically for light diffusion. The artwork was executed on a custom graphic film that was applied after installation of the glass. This approach allowed the glass installation to proceed on time while the graphic was being finalized, and also allows for future changes in the design. Exceptional, shadow-free backlighting is provided by Fusion LED panels integrated directly into the attachment system.

Testimonials
From the Architect:
We sought a high quality of light from a technical, space and budget standpoint. Bendheim’s system met those criteria. The light quality before the artwork was applied to the glass was incredibly clean and even, virtually no ghosting. Many claim to be able to achieve this, but few truly can, at least not on a budget that every client can afford… The Bendheim system is also engineered in such a way that we were able to integrate it into the building pretty effortlessly and flawlessly. — Clint Blew, Senior Design Architect, Burns & McDonnell
From the Installer:
Bendheim’s was the most cost effective solution for this project and the installation was a smooth process. The glass is right at the heart of the building and it creates a visually striking appearance. We are proud of this work. It’s an important project for everyone here in Missouri. — Ray Wells, Owner, Central Missouri Glass
