It will definitely be an interesting design challenge, but I still think something big like Mewata Armoury or CBE would have been better to work with.

What opened my eyes to the possibilities of the Planetarium was when I saw Body Worlds there. The thing I love about it is the way it's laid out presents many opportunities to surprise people. I remember at Body Worlds they had this plastinated dissected camel in the centre of this spiral ramp. As you ascended the ramp you could get a full 360 degree view of it.
