Half Sphere Tent
The half sphere tent is a true hemispherical clear-span shelter that maximizes covered volume on a small footprint. Its rounded form reads as a modern pod for dining, display, or relaxation.
Our half sphere tent uses a hard-pressed aluminum clear-span frame with no interior poles, so the full floor area stays open for storage, events, or production. Each unit is built to order with PVC covers, galvanized connectors, and the load ratings shown in the specification table below.
Product Overview
- Set a hemispherical aluminum frame in diameters from 6 m to 25 m without interior columns.
- Skin the dome in PVC, translucent fabric, or glass panels as needed.
- Vent the apex with a rotating cowl for passive airflow.
- Add a straight or curved entrance module and decking at the base.
- Cluster several spheres of mixed sizes into a linked pod village.
