Planet Hollywood's Iconic Globe at Disney Springs Gets a Makeover with New PTFE Membrane Cladding

Location: Orlando, FL USA
Fabric Type: PTFE Fiberglass
Market Sector: Facades
Project Size: 21,000 sq.ft.
Architect: Morris Architects
Owner: Planet Hollywood
General Contractor: PCL
Completion Date: November 16, 2016

Planet Hollywood transformed its iconic globe at Downtown Disney into what the company is called a turn-of-the-20th-century observatory. The globe became surrounded by a brick exterior and an expanded outdoor terrace and bar. "Disney is turning it into a turn-of-the-century Central Florida mining town, and the observatory was a feature at the time," said Planet Hollywood International founder and chairman Robert Earl. "We've gone back to that look for Planet Hollywood." Planet Hollywood at Downtown Disney is now a collection of themes meant to represent a diverse lineup of Hollywood flicks. There is a castle gate on the lower floor, floating cars and airplanes and a futuristic look in areas with television screens.

Birdair's scope included the design, fabrication, supply and installation of the gray-colored PTFE membrane and clamping for the signature dome.
