Can't seem to find it, but an interior render of one of the Ottawa arena proposals has an awesome ceiling. That's what I would love to see. Gives the venue a more intimate look and should improve sound greatly for concerts. Almost gives it a concert hall feel/look.

Here's the ceiling from the Sens winning proposal. We'll see if they actually stick with the design in about 5-10 years.
