Patent ID: 7506483

Claim:
The method of erecting a building structure including a roof and side walls having a desired contoured configuration to provide an esthetic effect comprising the steps of: providing a first inner supporting fabric, inflating the first inner supporting fabric forming a first domed structure, providing at least a second inner supporting fabric, inflating the at least a second inner supporting fabric forming at least a second domed structure spaced apart from the first domed structure, draping an outer finishing fabric over the first domed structure and over the at least a second domed structure wherein the outer finishing fabric is supported substantially throughout by the inflated first inner supporting fabric and the inflated second inner supporting fabric and the outer finishing fabric assumes the desired contoured configuration, forming a unitary covering over all of the domed structures, coating a surface of the outer finishing fabric with a stiffener thereby assuring rigidity of the desired contoured configuration in the building structure, allowing the stiffener to cure, and deflating the first inner supporting fabric and the at least a second inner supporting fabric thereby forming a single layered structure having the desired contoured configuration.
