A Birdair architectural fabric membrane stretches out over this 70,000 square-foot contemporary building, lending a real "circus tent" look to Cirque Du Soleil Walt Disney World. The "tent" which is highly detailed and allows inside illumination, reflects the imagination of Walt Disney World as well as the creative performances of Cirque Du Soleil.
In addition to offering an aesthetically appealing look, the PTFE fabric membrane offers functional benefits including daylighting and energy-savings, as well as increased durability, weather resistance and minimal maintenance requirements.
