Swarovski's Crystal Dome is found within the company's Crystal Worlds headquarters which are now located in Austria. The theme park-esqe venue includes 595 mirrors that reflect a mesmerizing array of colors, shapes and of course, valuable bits of quartz.
Visitors to this Swarovski-approved set up enter what appears to be an alternate universe, "The Crystal Dome is a kaleidoscope, precision-cut journey into the heart of the crystal- right in the middle of the homeland of crystal itself."
The glistening reflections that are cast along the walls of the Crystal Dome are indeed reminiscent of kaleidoscope patterns. Triangles lined up against one another imbue viewers with a futuristic state of mind, transporting them at once to a realm rife with patterns, shapes and smooth, cool textures.
