The conceptual design is input to special CAD design software that creates a virtual panel in an approximation of final glass texture and color.  The design can be printed or emailed for further discussions refine the design. 

When the form of the design is set, it is printed in black and white outline form full size on a large plotter.  The individual pieces are cut from the printed outline.  The fabrication stage is very important.  Being intimately hands on, it presents the opportunity for a higher level of artistic selection of glass texture, direction, and color beyond what is possible in CAD.  Fabrication may require minor layout tweaks.  Reinforcement methods for panel longevity are also worked at at that time.

Shipment, delivery, or delivery and installation (at additional cost), complete the process.
