Geodesic domes

R. Buckminster Fuller was an inventor of geodesic domes.

They are designed to be lightweight, cost-effective, energy efficient and easy to assemble. Geodesic domes enclose more space without intrusive supporting columns than any other structure. They efficiently distribute stress to be able to withstand extremely harsh conditions and earthquakes.

We plan to design and build the most beautiful, innovative geodomes with aquaponics and lofted living spaces using NEW techniques. We can show how it’s possible to grow vegetation all throughout the year, including tropical foods and create wonderful living environments in geodomes.

In evaluation of geodomes for permaculture, the expertise and style of the kits from this Colorado based company are good for reference: https://growingspaces.com/

Here is a 360 degree virtual tour of a 33 foot dome: https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=aD2dJum6hwa

NEW geodomes will apply best practices in earthbags, cob, Earthships, aquaponics and more techniques to be innovative, unique and beautiful!

There are many ways to DIY build geodesic domes. Much more information on this and many other topics in sustainable living can be developed with your support.
