Who said ceilings are boring?

high

This is the most curvaceous ceiling I have ever seen. It rises from beneath the floor in the form of a 40 foot high circular funnel. This then fans out and forms six elliptical undulating domes covering 43,000 sqft. The ceiling is made of a metal skeleton that is lined with over 131,000 feet of Western Red Cedar wood from Canada. It feels like you are walking underneath a gigantic flat topped mushroom!

Congratulations, it is a gorgeous photo. But after reading your explanation, I can not stop thinking of the massive deforestation and the bald mountains you see when flying over in British Columbia.
