Thin composite panels with interconnection schemes that are unitized with the panels, i.e., formed integrally and substantially simultaneously with the panels. Further contemplated is the application of an injection molding technique, such as reaction injection molding, in establishing a foam or polymeric core between laminates in thin composite panels. Additionally contemplated is the use of interchangeable laminate components in affording the capability of altering the coloring or other visual features of a reveal in a panel or panels.

What is claimed is: 1. A thin composite architectural panel comprising: a structural core; a set of laminates disposed about said structural core; a first portion for interfacing and facilitating interconnection with another thin composite architectural panel; a second portion for interfacing and facilitating interconnection with another thin composite architectural panel; said first interfacing portion comprising a first lip portion adapted to be interposed between a wall and a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel in a building wall assembly; and said second interfacing portion comprising a second lip portion adapted to flank, with a wall, a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel in a building wall assembly; whereby the introduction of a sealant between said first lip portion and a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel is facilitated; whereby the introduction of a sealant between said second lip portion and a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel is facilitated; wherein said laminates comprise metal sheet elements; wherein said metal sheet elements comprise: a roll-formed face sheet element; and a roll-formed major liner sheet element disposed primarily in spaced-apart relation with respect to said face sheet element; wherein said metal sheet elements further comprise at least one connecting liner sheet element disposed between at least one terminal portion of said face sheet element and at least one terminal portion of said major liner sheet element; and wherein one said connecting liner sheet element defines a distal end of said first lip portion. 2. The panel according to claim 1, wherein said panel comprises a major portion where said structural core and laminates have in sum an average thickness dimension of less than about 15 mm. 3. The panel according to claim 1, wherein said panel comprises a major portion where said structural core and laminates have in sum an average thickness dimension of less than about 10 mm. 4. The panel according to claim 1, wherein said face sheet element terminates in a return edge adapted to define a side of a reveal. 5. The panel according to claim 1, wherein a terminal portion of said major liner sheet element comprises a flange portion for being disposed against a wall, said flange portion defining one side of said first lip portion. 6. The panel according to claim 1, wherein said metal sheet elements further comprise a minor face sheet element connected to a terminal end of said face sheet element, said minor face sheet element being adapted to form a rear portion of a reveal associated with said panel and to impart a pre-selectable appearance solely to said reveal. 7. The panel according to claim 1, wherein a portion of said panel adjacent said second lip portion is adapted to accommodate a fastening element for fastening said panel to a wall. 8. The panel according to claim 1, wherein said structural core comprises one of: a foam structural core and a polymeric, thermal-set structural core. 9. The panel according to claim 1, wherein said structural core has been introduced within said laminates via reaction injection molding, whereby structural integrity of said panel is enhanced. 10. A thin composite architectural panel comprising: a structural core; a set of laminates disposed about said structural core; a first portion for interfacing and facilitating interconnection with another thin composite architectural panel; a second portion for interfacing and facilitating interconnection with another thin composite architectural panel; said first interfacing portion comprising a first lip portion adapted to be interposed between a wall and a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel in a building wall assembly; and said second interfacing portion comprising a second lip portion adapted to flank, with a wall, a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel in a building wall assembly; whereby the introduction of a sealant between said first lip portion and a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel is facilitated; whereby the introduction of a sealant between said second lip portion and a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel is facilitated; wherein said laminates comprise metal sheet elements; wherein said metal sheet elements comprise: a roll-formed face sheet element; and a roll-formed major liner sheet element disposed primarily in spaced-apart relation with respect to said face sheet element; wherein said metal sheet elements further comprise at least one connecting liner sheet element disposed between at least one terminal portion of said face sheet element and at least one terminal portion of said major liner sheet element; and wherein one said connecting liner sheet element defines a distal end of said second lip portion. 11. The panel according to claim 10, wherein said panel comprises a major portion where said structural core and laminates have in sum an average thickness dimension of less than about 15 mm. 12. The panel according to claim 10, wherein said panel comprises a major portion where said structural core and laminates have in sum an average thickness dimension of less than about 10 mm. 13. The panel according to claim 10, wherein said face sheet element terminates in a return edge adapted to define a side of a reveal. 14. The panel according to claim 10, wherein a terminal portion of said major liner sheet element comprises a flange portion for being disposed against a wall, said flange portion defining one side of said first lip portion. 15. The panel according to claim 10, wherein a portion of said panel adjacent said second lip portion is adapted to accommodate a fastening element for fastening said panel to a wall. 16. The panel according to claim 10, wherein said structural core comprises one of: a foam structural core and a polymeric, thermal-set structural core. 17. The panel according to claim 10, wherein said structural core has been introduced within said laminates via reaction injection molding, whereby structural integrity of said panel is enhanced. 18. The panel according to claim 10, wherein said metal sheet elements further comprise a minor face sheet element connected to a terminal end of said face sheet element, element, said minor face sheet element being adapted to form a rear portion of a reveal associated with said panel and to impart a pre-selectable appearance solely to said reveal. 19. A thin composite architectural panel comprising: a structural core; a set of laminates disposed about said structural core; a first portion for interfacing and facilitating interconnection with another thin composite architectural panel; a second portion for interfacing and facilitating interconnection with another thin composite architectural panel; said first interfacing portion comprising a first lip portion adapted to be interposed between a wall and a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel in a building wall assembly; and said second interfacing portion comprising a second lip portion adapted to flank, with a wall, a lip portion of another thin composite architectural panel in a building wall assembly; wherein said laminates comprise: a face sheet element; and a major liner sheet element disposed primarily in spaced-apart relation with respect to said face sheet element; wherein said laminates further comprise at least one connecting liner sheet element disposed between at least one terminal portion of said face sheet element and at least one terminal portion of said major liner sheet element; and wherein one said connecting liner sheet element defines a distal end of said first lip portion. 20.
