The future dome above the Madlena Art Palace is a hemisphere with a radius of 3 meters where art and engineering embrace. Made from durable materials such as glass and steel, this dome is a symphony of transparency and strength.

The glass shell is supported by 12 steel arcs interconnected by a system of horizontal elements, which allows the weight and lateral expansion to be evenly distributed. The dome oculus, covered with glass, allows for air circulation.

Horizontal light shelves, mounted outside of a glass surface, reflect sunlight into the interior, minimize glare and thereby increase visual comfort. Incorporating LED lighting adds elegant architectural aesthetics.

The LED hyperboloid construction inside the dome forms a sophisticated web, that converge in a mesmerizing pattern. Glass covers this framework, creating a shield that protects but doesn’t hide the space inside the dome. The glass panels capture the dance of light and shadow from daylight to the fiery glow in the dark.


The official symbol of Zepter International - stylized letter "Z" is located on two sides of the dome for better presentation. The position is perfectly calculated, catching the eye of passers-by from the street and visitors from the garden. The logos are large enough to be visible from a distance, but not overpowering. They are made of brushed stainless steel for durability and modern aesthetic.

LED backlighting of the letters makes the logo visible day and night. In the evenings the logo may transit from white to blue. LED technology ensures low power consumption and longevity.

The illuminated dome is a beacon, which breathes light and representing Zepter’s global reach, innovation, and pursuit of excellence. This design combines aesthetics, functionality, and brand identity. It is also a philosophical statement, in which Zepter speaks of a future, in which beauty and functionality are intertwined.
