Over 3,000 sq. ft. of Phenolic Panels adorn the Wahlburgers restaurant in Brookfield, WI. The restaurant building features a stunning Panel façade that incorporates both contemporary and traditional design elements. Panels were cut as planks and in various colors, creating a modern first impression on the main entrance. Natural woodgrain and slate designs were used to playfully contrast the lime green and white accent panels, elevating the casual ambience of the burger chain.
