A decorative architectural panel can be formed using multiple image layers
to create one or more three-dimensional effects in a final product. In
particular, a reference image layer comprises an extruded sheet having an
artistically-designed reference image formed thereon. A next image layer
comprises an extruded sheet having a differently sized iteration of the
artistically designed reference image. A manufacturer can place the next
image layer over the reference image layer, and set the combined image
layers such that the final product shows the artistically-designed image
in three-dimensions. Additional image layers, such as a color layer, or a
layer having embedded objects, can be combined with the stratified
product for additional artistic effects.
