The ‘floating’ fabric roof was designed to be the “halo” on top of the outdoor lounge bar. The architecturally designed tensioned fabric roof offers a distinctive feature for the venue.
The unique, yet simple exterior of the structure required a complex design; In essence the design is an oval shaped inverted cone. All steelwork was designed to be hidden within the depth of the perimeter skirt, ensuring that no steel was visible from above the top line of the skirt or below. Only the 4 columns can be seen.
The internal structural steel gutter also acts as the support of the audio and projection equipment which disguises the actual main use to control water catchment of the membrane above. 10089
