The Samson Center project is a new wing for the ‘World Union for Progresive Judaism’ in Jerusalem. The wing accommodates a theater, a conference center, an extension of the hostel ‘Beit Shmuel’ and a large multifunctional hall.
The great hall is a nine meter high conical dome overlooking David’s Citadel and the Old City. The dome is constructed with elliptical tubes. The glass panels are connected to the construction with Quattro nodes.
