Sound Temple Dome

Scott Howard was the senior designer and builder on this project. This is the largest structure completed under Scott's leadership to date. This structure was completed during an 8-week workshop with over 20 participants. This catenary dome is over 23 ft x 23ft and one of the largest of its kind in the world. A crew of local Thai builders finished the dome with cement plaster and tile. The interior offers a rare acoustical experience because of its ability to focus echoes in the center of the space. The dome stands in tact at the Pyramid Yoga Center on Koh Phangan, Thailand.
