A Playhouse for Charity: Arched Ceiling for American Airlines Center

Recently we were approached to donate a groin vault ceiling for a playhouse that would be raffled off for charity.The charity was for Dallas Casa; to aid abused & neglected children (www.DallasCasa.org). Our project was one of a kind. We were delegated the task to replicate the roof & ceiling of the American Airlines Center, home of the Dallas Mavericks & Dallas Stars.
I immediately thought, "How can anyone pass up this exciting opportunity?" So we jumped right on in and started construction. The tricky part to this project was designing the groin vault roof and interior groin vault ceiling because we had to literally create two groin vaults that would sit on top of one another. The reason we built the ceiling and roof this way was to insure we could add adequate support for the roof. After we were all finished, the builder along with Sign Grafx finished out the playhouse beautifully. The American Airlines Center playhouse is one of a kind and will make any child feel as if he was sitting court side at a Mavericks game.
