Couldnt you just build a 1000 Square Foot geodesic dome home on the ground and be done with it?! Build your dome on the top of a hill if you have to look down at the Earth. Geez, it is as if everybody is trying to pretend they are living inside a Christmas Ornament. Oh wait. I guess a snow globe(dome home) is a Christmas Ornament. Well I guess a 1000 sq. Foot Geodesic Dome Home would be more practical and cost effective to boot. With the money saved from a dome home they could build an elevator to take the kids on up to the higher elevations.
Geodesic domes aren’t all that they’re cracked up to be. Some of the early avid proponents turned against the idea after long-term experience with them.
I was once crazy about the idea - until I met someone who actually lived in one over years. They leak, and aren’t nearly as energy efficient as ‘they’ say.
I still think it’s a good idea, but needs a lot of work.
I love the idea of things like this, and love looking at them as well as all the ‘tiny houses’; but couldn’t live in one. My life is too big ;-)
I’m pretty sure they didn’t build this thing near Paradise, CA.
