This 106′ diameter, 68 foot high dome utilizes CST’s dome system. The dome covers an OMNI*MAX theater and is clad with a unique paneling system. The pre-fabricated wood panels are unique in that they form a double layer system that is curved on the outside surface and flat on the inside surface.

The outstanding advantage is that the panel can be pre-insulated and then placed directly into a standard dome framework. After the panels are in place, a perfectly spherical exterior surface was created providing an outstanding architectural statement.
