Dome Projection Room That Creates a Stunning Visual World
When regular text, pictures, or flat videos just aren’t enough, it might be time to try a dome projection room—it gives you a fully immersive visual experience.
People only have so much energy, but our desire to experience new things is never-ending. Since the digital age began, we’ve gotten used to seeing the world through flat screens—text, images, and videos.
But let’s face it—what really moves us are the things that feel real and alive. That’s where a dome projection room makes a big difference. Instead of using a flat surface, it brings visuals to life in a 3D space that wraps around you. Thanks to its continuous, curved walls, the visuals flow naturally from one side to the other, creating a smoother and more immersive experience than a regular room projection setup.

It’s hard to find an art installation as eye-catching and functional as a dome projection room. On the outside, the dome can be covered with custom-printed fabric to grab attention. On the inside, the 360 degree projection room features a special surface made for projection, creating the perfect space for immersive visuals.
A great example is the immersive art installation created by NewMedia Creative Technology Studio and Shelter Dome. We combined the dome structure with live performances by contemporary artists to deliver a truly stunning audio-visual experience.
Showing the beauty of the night sky in a planetarium or astronomy exhibit can be a real challenge. That’s why a dome projection room is such a great solution. Its round shape matches how we naturally look up at the stars, and with immersive full room projection, it makes people feel like they’re really floating in space.
At the newly opened planetarium in Bruchhausen-Vilsen, one of the main attractions is a starry sky experience presented inside a dome immersive projection room built by Shelter Dome. Using a wraparound projection system inside the dome, visitors can enjoy a breathtaking view of moving galaxies and changing skies—bringing the universe closer than ever before.

How Much Does a Dome Immersive Projection Room Cost?
The dome immersive projection room cost depends on several factors:
Projection Type
Inside projection usually costs more than outside projection because it needs better equipment and setup.
Size
Bigger domes cost more since they need more materials and stronger structures.
Materials
Most domes use PVC fabric and a steel frame. If you want special materials, the cost will go up.
Add-ons and Custom Options
Things like projection systems, sound systems, acoustic panels, or a custom look can add a lot to the price. The more features you want—and the higher the quality—the more you’ll pay.
For example, a 5-meter dome with only basic outside projection will start at around $3,000.
