Etymology

The word 'paneled' originates from the word 'panel', which comes from the Middle French 'pan' or 'panne', meaning a 'piece' or 'section'. The term evolved in English in the late 15th century to denote a flat or rectangular piece, originally referring to fine materials like cloth or wood. As architecture and design practices evolved, 'paneled' became associated with various applications, particularly in the context of creating structured and aesthetically pleasing surfaces in buildings. Over time, the use of paneled elements has come to symbolize craftsmanship and attention to detail in both residential and commercial spaces.
