PRESENTED IN COLLABORATION WITH ARTECHOUSE STUDIO:
PEAK BLOOM: DOME EXPERIENCE
Celebrate Washington, DC’s most beautiful season from a whole new perspective. Peak Bloom: Dome Experience transforms Hi-Lawn’s iconic rooftop Dome into a breathtaking digital cherry blossom spectacle—where petals, light, and motion unfold overhead in an immersive springtime journey.
Located on the rooftop at Union Market, Hi-Lawn’s 50-foot spherical Dome becomes the canvas for this limited spring presentation. Created in collaboration with ARTECHOUSE Studio, the experience features a curated selection of cherry blossom–inspired visuals thoughtfully adapted for the Dome’s unique architecture, surrounding guests with luminous blooms and flowing digital landscapes inspired by DC’s peak bloom season.
Designed as a 45-minute immersive experience, guests are invited to step inside and settle beneath the expansive projection surface as the story unfolds above them. The experience blends art, technology, and the spirit of spring into a contemporary digital interpretation of Washington’s beloved seasonal ritual.

PEAK BLOOM:
DOME EXPERIENCE
Peak Bloom: Dome Experience features a selection of cherry blossom-inspired original visuals developed by ARTECHOUSE Studio and thoughtfully adapted for the Dome’s unique architectural format. During a 45-minute session guests are invited to escape the outside world and enter Hi-Lawn's iconic Dome . Projected above and 360 degrees around the walls of the dome, the experience invites guests to gaze up at the sphere’s expansive projection surface as petals, light and motion unfold overhead. The result is a contemporary digital interpretation of Washington’s beloved spring ritual, presented in a relaxed, shared viewing environment.

As the Dome's visuals unfold, guests can enjoy a curated spring a la carte drink menu of bright, bubbly spritzes, edible flower-garnished saketinis, and other seasonal drinks. The Dome also offers a full bar, with spirits, beer, wine and non-alcoholic options; plus a food menu of small bites and sandwiches. Food and drink will be sold a carte.
