Abstract: A translucent panel is provided to simulate the surface of a glass-block matrix. The panel is impressed with a rectangular grid to simulate the perimeter of a plurality of glass blocks in a matrix and with a texture pattern simulating the pattern or texture of glass blocks. Two panels are mounted in a window frame in a spaced parallel configuration to simulate a glass-block window. An interior partition or wall is constructed with panels on either side of an interior framework. The partition is finished by suitable end caps, corner pieces and top caps. The translucent panel is preferably made by feeding a hot sheet of glass or plastic between two opposed rollers each having a suitable pattern thereon.
