Systems and methods for providing a prefabricated, custom coffered ceiling apparatus, which includes an outer box frame, custom interior frame designs in accordance with an order, wherein the interior frame designs are attached to the outer box frame, and crown molding on the outside of the box frame at the top of the coffer. The coffers are finished with paint or various wood finished in accordance with an order. The coffer system is easily assembled via a groove created at the top of the coffer for easy installation at the desired location. Lighting fixtures or other desired elements may be mounted within the apparatus.

A cladding system comprising: a framing structure configured to be fixedly mounted to a wall of a building, said framing structure having one or more designated locations for mounting a cladding module thereon; a utility infrastructure configured to be connected to the framing structure and establish a pathway for a utility resource, said pathway having a utility port for interfacing with a cladding module being disposed at one of said designated locations when said utility infrastructure is connected to said framing structure; and at least one first cladding module having a functional element, said at least one cladding module being configured to be mounted to the framing structure at any one of said designated locations, said functional element being configured for connecting to the utility port for establishing said pathway and for interfacing with said utility resource therethrough.

A panel element is provided for use in a modular wall system with vertical support structures. The panel element includes a panel having a planar surface and side edges transverse to the planar surface, the planar surface can be hung up on at least one of the vertical support structures. An electrical connector is provided on the back of the panel, including a first connector pin and a connector second pin for forming electrical connections. The first and second connector pins fit within openings in a surface of one of the vertical support structure. The connector pins are movably coupled to the panel so as to allow movement of the first and second connector pins in at least one direction parallel to the planar surface between an extended position and a pulled-in position.

A stone slab with a light source and a manufacturing process thereof are disclosed. The stone slab includes a transparent composite plate. The composite plate includes a stone panel, a light guide plate, and a honeycomb plate laminated from top to bottom. A water-molecule-activated protective film is provided on an upper surface and a lower surface of the light guide plate respectively. The water-molecule-activated protective film on the upper surface of the light guide plate is bonded to the stone panel. The water-molecule-activated protective film on the lower surface of the light guide plate is bonded to the honeycomb plate by using an adhesive. The water-molecule-activated protective film can be used to bond the light guide plate. Moreover, the adhesive on another side of the water-molecule-activated protective film does not directly contact the light guide plate and avoids a problem that a lighting effect is impaired.
