Architectural Envy: People's Meeting Dome, Denmark


In running an independent boutique/concept store, we often find ourselves scouring the internet and blogosphere to see what fresh new ideas are emerging in the worlds of art and design. If you're reading this post, you probably share many of the same ideas and aesthetic interests as us, so we figured why not share our findings and show some fellow blogger love? This week we're pretty amped on an architectural masterpiece known as the People's Meeting Dome, a space created to host a Danish symposium on the future of housing.


Designed by Kristoffer Tejlgaard and Benny Jepsen, this architectonic wonder centers around a steel, wood, and glass geodesic dome that can be disassembled and rebuilt elsewhere, as well as modified in shape and size to accomodate its setting. The architects explain their design as a modern twist on the "anti-architecture" structures of the '70s.
