Abstract: An architectural assembly comprising a plurality of panels and a plurality of hooking members. The hooking members are in locked engagement with longitudinal edges of the panels, and fixedly couple together these panels. The panels may be semi-circular in shape, and, when coupled together, collectively form a circular structure that may be used to surround a structural column. In another embodiment of the invention, a panel attachment assembly is provided, comprising a plurality of supporting members mounted to a fixed structure, at least one panel, and the hooking members. The hooking members are lockingly engaged with the panel and the supporting members, for fixedly securing the panel to the supporting members. The hooking members preferably comprise a U-shaped portion having a base portion and two projecting portions extending from opposite sides of the base portion. The hooking members also comprise head and tail portions extending from upper and lower surfaces, respectively, of the base portion.
