Project Overview

This unique architectural landmark showcases a striking blend of vibrant colors and complex geometric design. Characterized by its signature Russian-architectural-inspired onion domes, the structure stands out as a colorful beacon within its landscape.


NUBIN spearheaded the detailed fabrication and structural installation of the custom Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) roof systems, turning a highly intricate design concept into a durable structural reality.


Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) was specifically selected for the complex fabrication of the decorative domes due to its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, extreme weather resistance, UV- resistance , flame Retardant, and molding flexibility. This allowed for the seamless execution of the compound curves required for the onion domes while ensuring long-term structural integrity against regional climate elements.


The project required high-precision finish execution across several distinct dome styles, including:

  • Bold spiraled stripes (blue and white, red and white).
  • Multi-tone checkered patterns (green and gold).
  • Sleek, high-gloss golden details crafted to capture natural light and create a striking visual focal point.


The result is a powerful, unique, and elegant landmark built with custom-engineered GRP components that deliver both whimsical beauty and long-term structural performance.
