Daedalum
Daedalum takes its name from Daedalus. In Greek mythology he was the father of Icarus and the architect of the labyrinth of King Minos of Crete.
Daedalum’s core is a labyrinth of 19 egg-shaped domes. This new structural concept makes a more expansive space and creates mysterious sightlines. Daedalum is the darkest of Luminaria due to limited use of translucent material. The shape of the pod windows are reminiscent of Art Nouveau styling.
Daedalum’s Tree, designed by Meko Parkinson, is an adventurous assembly of intersecting volumes rising with inspiring complexity. The 600-piece pattern of the Main Dome ceiling was inspired by the Pantheon of Rome and the Gustave Doré drawing of angels circling heavenward in Dante’s paradise.
