A folded architectural panel 10 folded form a flat sheet, first and second ends of the panel having respective first and second end fold lines 12, 14 extending across the width of the panel, a main wall 16 extending between the end fold lines, the first and second end fold lines moveable towards each other to contract the panel such that the main wall pivots about the lines to form a curved arc between them, increasing the depth of the panel, the panel including a pair of spaced apart curved fold lines extending between the first and second end fold lines, wherein, on contraction, two lateral sides 20 of the panel fold inwardly towards each other about the curved fold lines to form a pair of concave side walls 22. The panel may be a flexible material such as polyester felt. The system allows a 3D design of suspended ceiling to be supplied in modular flat panels with preformed creases to facilitate folding during installation. A system comprising a framework for hanging the ceiling is also supplied.
