In order to reproduce a suitable atmosphere for the helicopter crew of the flight simulator, the main target for the architects and engineers was to create a highly transparent façade.The primary structural characteristics of the cube are triple belted steel frames clad with modular membrane façade elements tensioned over a series of internal vertical arches. The result is an elegant, highly transparent low weight envelope that protects against the elements and gives the right environment for the helicopter simulator training. used materials MATERIAL ETFE foil
