Geodesic DomesA geodesic dome is a type of structure shaped like a piece of a sphere or a ball. This structure is comprised of a complex network of triangles that form a roughly spherical surface. The more complex the network of triangles, the more closely the dome approximates the shape of a true sphere [sic].
DOME BUILDING KIT Consists of all the triangular and riser component panels for the dome shell and panels for one entryway. Each component panel has 7" R-28 expanded bead polystyrene (E.P.S.) insulation, a steel reinforced concrete exterior surface (22' dome has 3½" insulation) and wall board. All triangular and riser panels now include Georgia Pacific 1/4" Dens-Deck wallboard on the interior surface of the insulation
MY PERSONAL FAVORITE....EcoCottages Provide instant "off-grid" housing & shelter solutions that are designed to easily ship and assemble virtually anywhere. EcoCottages begin with an all steel insulated design, utilizing pre-engineered, pre-cut, pre-drilled & pre-marked pieces by the factory. This allows users to quickly and efficiently assemble the system on-site. Solar power, wind generator, rainwater harvesting, and biolet off-grid toilets are available. Please contact us for a simple solution to your project needs.

Substainable Living
Native American wisdom teaches us to us to walk lightly upon the earth - so that all we do may bless the earth and its inhabitants for seven generations.
"I then said, "I see the hydrogen atom doesn't have to earn a living before behaving like a hydrogen atom. In fact, as best I can see, only human beings operate on the basis of 'having to earn a living.' The concept is one introduction into social conventions only by the temporal power structure's dictums of the ages. If I am doing what God's evolutionary strategy needs to have accomplished, I need spend no further time worrying about such matters."
"We can live handsomely using only daily income of the Sun's and gravity's multi-way-intergenerated energies."
- R. Buckminster Fuller
