Oblique view of the large domed (from our perspective, oval) skylight, composed of thousands of light blue/white glass discs held together in metal frames that form a matrix around a central circle. In this circle are intricate floral and abstract designs and the 12 symbols of the zodiac.

Around the base of the dome is a ring of orange/white lights, and the surrounding ceiling is a mosaic of intricate floral designs on a white background.
