Our Contribution to Nuremberg Celebrating its Most Famous Son, the Painter Albrecht Dürer: We present his Works of Art in the Best Possible Light …
In 2012 Nuremberg focused on Albrecht Dürer who was not only one of the city's most famous sons but also one of Germany's most important painters. Commensurate with the occasion, the city renovated Albrecht Dürer's house where he created his greatest works of art. This renovation included the remodelling of the entrance area of the house where the painting "Masters of Dürer's Time" by Friedrich Wilhelm Wanderer introduces the visitors to Nuremberg's golden age and shows Dürer among his most famous contemporaries. The painting was digitally printed on Lightpanel frameless and softly illuminates the room. Cool white LEDs make the painting'' colours brilliant and pristine.

"Art in Concrete". A Sculpture Garden at Guatemala
During the international sculpture festival "Arte En Concreto" at Guatemala, works of art combining concrete with light panels, light fibres and plexiglas® were created under the aegis of the renowned Erlangen artist Dieter Erhard.
The small light areas or delicate plastic elements form a fascinating contrast to the heaviness of the building material. The sculptures touch the beholder by their gracefulness. An example of the various application possibilities of Lightpanels and translucent plastics.

Axis was also responsible for the realisation of the planning which was accomplished by the company's in-house engineering department.
Haute Cuisine by star chef Peter Maria Schnurr –presented on innovative products made by Designpanel.
Apart from the intriguing taste compositions for which Peter Maria Schnurr is famous, Iceplex, Wavepanel, Aquaplex and Invision are the secret stars of Ralf Müller’s new oeuvre. With great skill, the well-known food photographer from Dortmund presented the meals prepared by the chef, who won 2 Michelin stars, in the right perspective. The translucent acrylic glass or PETG, through their optical lightness, are the perfect framework for Schnurr’s ingeniously light cuisine. The colourful portrayals e. g. on velvet-like Iceplex in pink, orange or white are a true work of art...
We were quite thrilled when we first heard that

The award ceremony and presentation of the gold cup to our

the festive atmosphere of the BMW World at
Munich.
The presentation of the iF gold award was celebrated by about 1,600 guests. With the presentation of the iF gold award, topping all iF competitions, the iF design awards night was the design event at the beginning of the year. At the invitation of iF International Forum Design, the award winners and guests of an economic, cultural and political background celebrated their success in one of the most famous design competitions.

LIGHTPANEL and WAVEPANEL are nominated for the German Design Award 2012. The German Design Council about the award:
The very best in design deserves the best in prizes, to be more precise, the 2012 German Design Award. It is bestowed annually for outstanding achievements in product and communication design by the German Design Council. Personalities from the world of design are also honored. There is also a cash prize for young designers. The 2012 German Design Award is the award of awards and the award of award-winners. A reward for outstanding work. Only works that are both pioneering and marketable, and indeed have already proved that they are fit for market, are short-listed. The competition aims to identify, present, and reward innovative and international design trends. In other words, design that differentiates. In this light, participating is something for the crème de la crème. Winning too.
