Buckminster Fuller was my friend in the '70's. My landscape design project was based on his dome drawings. We need dome structures more than ever in our modern world 🌎.
More people should be educated on the great efficiency of a dome. Also, the strength and safety it provides for the family. I find it to be a very good idea! You can grow food inside year round. It seems to me they are also cheaper than a traditional stick building.
Question and I know it's a four year old comment, but what company. We are selling our house right now to build a dome and are shopping around for companies.
Having a dome like this makes living in all season states less demanding, I'd love actually living in one which is mostly well self sustainable hence eliminating a few monopolies that are so demandingly high during winter, imagine being able to enjoy all seasons not fearing quadrupled costs incurred in winter, a person could literally garden, be creative and enjoy the usually difficult season to its fullest, what a phenomenal idea, earthships are also a great option although these dome homes seem so straight forward and doable, thank you for sharing, WOW!!
After driving through Galveston after the last hurricane I can’t believe they aren’t building these dome houses.. in fact so many places that experience extreme weather could really benefit.. 😳.. we need to evolve I guess..
A lot of these were geodesic, but domes of yore were ribs reaching center top. I venture I could build the most economically viable structure by combining cement silo and dome. The basic structure would follow the same idea as farm silos which also have dome roofs. Many floors with windows would be possible, a winding staircase as in lighthouse but could hug the circumference rather than center pole. Well anyhow.
It's still a silo with a dome on top that does not give you the invincibility of the Dome structure. The technical term "tensegrity" was coined by Buckminster Fuller. Later in life, his estate trademarked the term tensegrity after Carlos Castaneda used it 2 coin his Magical Passes. I attended some of the workshops. Plus, I may misunderstand you, but I trust you want many levels for your own home rather than Apartments. After all that's what we are here to get away from. ✌
@@adelchidipalma9857 Polycarbonate, some versions has Bisphenol A which is similar to estrogen, but it's not toxic and considered safe enough to make food containers out of and even dental fillings. It's also very strong and lasts for a long time. If you don't want to use that and still want parts of it transparent your only choice is glass which I wouldn't recommend. If you don't care about it being transparent though you could use anything from clay and dirt to the kind of fiber mesh and resin we build modern boats out of which is fairly non toxic although not completely, which is kind of the point because it kills mold and other things you generally don't want.
I've seen a much simpler done in the past. It involves a giant balloon that is inflated inside of a semi-soft material which creates a done. It is left to harden. Then the balloon is deflated and removed leaving the dome shell to be finished. It was said to cut building time and expense drastically.
Monolithic dome homes, inflatable form can be any reasonable dome shape and size and it is blown over with I think they called it shot create a kind of light weight concrete thing. goes up in a few days and is super strong.
I've seen this construction too. The fast setting concrete is "blown" through a tube onto the balloon surface. Also, a dome can be created using plywood triangles bolted onto the frame members. An Elastomeroc coating is applied to seal the dome. This was a crude design by today's standards.
@@ericbrown8398 Wish I could tell you. It was just something I remember seeing. Of course about 20 yrs ago I saw a way to protect.homes from fire. I believe it was the Hollywood Hills fire. Some company ground up disposable diapers and mixed them with water. They then sprayed the mixture all over a home in the path of the fire. That fire burned down all of the other homes in the neighborhood, but not this one. It seems that the diaper material holds 10-12 times it's weight in water. It protected the home and after they washed it off the house was pretty much unscathed. I thought well that's the future. Never heard about it again. What happened?
GREAT IDEA !!!! I WISH THIS WAS AROUND WHEN I WAS YOUNGER NOW THAT IM OLDER ITS TOO LATE FOR ME BUT GREAT FOR PEOPLE JUST STARTING OUT IN LIFE THANK YOU FOR THE VERY INTERESTING VIDEO
The Dome "above the arctic circle" is still in a mild environment - there are Trees in the view. This is the often missed point that latitude alone does not tell you climate. Europe is warmed by the Gulf Stream, making northern latitudes far warmer than say the same latitude in Northern Canada or Siberia. The Tree-line is a good indicator of permafrost (where the ground remains frozen even during summer) - In Central Canada this line comes down below Hudson's Bay to Latitude 55-degrees, where-as in Norway the Tree-line extends early all the way to the northern tip of the nation at about 84-degrees. Similarly to the Gulf Stream which warms Western Europe, the Japan-current warms Western North-America, providing British-Columbia (Canada) and Alaska with a far milder climate than the Central or Eastern Canadian Arctic. If you want an interesting comparison between two Cities with similar Latitude but completely different weather, look up the average weather for London England at 51-degrees north, and Winnipeg Manitoba (Canada) at 50-degrees north!
I love the concept of a dome home, but haven't found them to be attractive in the past. You've shown several examples here, however, of beautiful dome structures such as, "Dome of a Home." Bravo!
I think the house that are the orange domes are the best because it answer the world probs to do with housing and the first tiny home on growing your own food is also a plus , all other fines are beautiful though✋🌎😇😇🙏👊✊

i quit my restaurant business of ten years to learn furniture making. i am now in the process of building my own home, and i plan to include a geodisic dome greenhouse. you can just make a lot of the material things you want in life, and you don’t have to sell your soul to do it. discipline = freedom
you forgot the grand daddy of them all: deltec. They've been around for longer than all of these and still make some of the best dome homes you can buy.
Most the time when someone posts we forgot something I quickly get the link to the video we posted featuring that item. In this case, to my surprise, we have not featured Deltec yet. Thanks for the heads up I'll most definitely research them more.
Nice video.Fuller's main goal was to make housing affordable with prefab domes. There is a company in Japan that produces prefab domes using SIPs (self insulated panels) that you can put together for many sizes and configurations. If you google it, you'll see a whole village built with these.
I love a dome too but available cabinetry, and furniture, aren't meant for curved walls so you either need more floor space than otherwise necessary to account for that or have custom everything to fit the curves. They don't seem practical to me, but I do love them. I'd love a dome home covered in soil and graded into a hill with a gradual slope and a moat lol

Thank you.😊 Great video, I liked 5 for the medium home affordable in general (1up from the tiny house size) and the dome bagolas for green houses and outdoor areas too.
With the house within a glass dome, a jungle of plants would be essential as air scrubbers. There would be no way for a build up of CO2 to escape through an open entrance door or the apex vent, because CO2 is heavier than air and falls to the ground, it would be kept inside by air pressure. Air would enter through the door or other ventilation, warm up inside like a greenhouse and rise, which would cause air to rush in with no escape for CO2.
Maybe not so far out of reach...We live in a geodesic home in Texas that was actually far cheaper per square foot than the other “normal” homes in the area.
Thanks for watching everyone! 😍

You know the prices they did give weren’t crazy. They were on par with a normal build, at least here in New Zealand.

I live in a beautiful Dome House built in 1970 and I love it! Surrounded by Redwoods too... such a Blessing!
Wow 🤩 that sounds incredibly beautiful! That’s the way to experience life!
This should be the new trend in building homes
Sustainable and safe homes that are easy to assemble and built cheap affordable
Bucky Fuller was indeed a genius. Critical Mass is still one of my top 10 favorite books.

I think the habitat videos are the best, I always watch them. From sleeping bags to homes they are the most interesting.
Yes please. I would love to live in a dome, Fabulous. love it, love, love it.
California needs this as , does the Midwest where tornadoes are presant and the eastern coast where hurricanes are presant

Allard Engineering has been designing Dome homes in Great Barrington, Mass, for decades. I worked on one of them. Genius.
concrete Domes are the safest it could survive / fires / Hurricanes / earth Quakes / Tornados
Who makes the cement ones?
Elevated dome house would also escape waterflood. But escape fire? Thats way impossible☺️
Yes. Domes are the way to go. I like to live in domes.
#2 is the house I'm looking to have built in the future. Moving back to houston and that house should do well against flooding and hurricanes
The one in Pensacola, Florida would rock my world if I could get one built similar that's the most gorgeous one ever !
Some of those are absolutely incredible! Actually, most.

Having a dome shaped home would be ideal. Being an amateur astronomer, I would have to have a separate one for my telescopes!
Excellent video!
Me too!
Cool you are!
These are all great uses of geodesic domes. I most liked #1 and #12.
Loved the idea of number 1, looks beautiful especially when you own a huge backyard.
This is a future that has yet to come.

Amazing ideas
Totally impractical and affordable for general living.
What's unaffordable for general living? So i'm clear on that in the future and I know what I can and can't afford as well.
I love a dome home. Cheers!
Great Ideas that are totally out of the reach of average people.
I refuse to set limits for myself. I don't see anything here out of reach for anyone else either.
Maybe not so far out of reach...We live in a geodesic home in Texas that was actually far cheaper per square foot than the other “normal” homes in the area.
I liked the Norwegian one. While over long period of will pay for itself be nice if you could build it initially cheaper.
14 will never have mice. I love it.
11,10,9 and #6 were my favorites. But #10 I wouldn't mind owning. I wish they would have showed the inside of #9 that one was nice too.
Absolutely amazing Dome Homes
