Custom Spherical Structures for Ridley Scott’s "The Martian" - Mars

FDomes prepared a set of futuristic, custom-made spherical dome structures for Ridley Scott's American sci-fi thriller The Martian. Produced and assembled on the film set in Jordan and at a studio in Budapest, the domes served as a human base on Mars, supporting the film's storyline.

Custom-Made Domes for a Martian Film Set

Custom-Made Domes for a Martian Film Set

The spherical dome structures used in the 20th Century Fox film The Martian were custom-made by Freedomes to fit the storyline. The action of The Martian takes place on the planet Mars, where Mark Watney (Matt Damon) fights for survival after a failed space mission. The spherical structures used in the film served as a human base on Mars, where the character lived and cultivated his own vegetable plantation.

From Film Production to New Dome Applications

From Film Production to New Dome Applications

The production of the structures and assembly work carried out by the Freedomes team on the film set in Jordan and at the studio in Budapest coincided with the development of our new products. This resulted in two new product lines: F.Domes.Glamping and F.Domes.Grow, which were being launched onto the market at the time. These F.Domes spherical tents, designed for self-assembly, had applications similar to those shown in the film. They could serve as outdoor living pods and glamping (glamour camping) accommodation (F.Domes.Glamping) or as greenhouses for growing organic vegetables and fruit at home (F.Domes.Grow).
