These huge inflatable domes are currently on display as part of a travelling exhibition entitled 'EXXOPOLIS,' which is the Architect's of Air's 20th Luminarium. These gigantic inflated interconnected domes are filled entirely using natural light and mostly without the use of computers.
These psychedelic linen made dome designs were first created by the companies founder, Alan Parkinson 22 years ago and have since grown to become more and more futuristic looking. These colossal inflatables are currently touring the United States for people to visit and walk through.
These huge cavernous tunnels offer a fantastically futuristic world for the public to visit and explore. I for one think one of these huge domes would be perfect at a festival or as a venue for a large party. As you can see from the pictures, these domes are also a great place to hang out and just chill.
