Dreaming of a geodesic dome home in 2027? Start with these five questions 🏡
1️⃣ How will you live in it? A full-time home, a weekend getaway and a backyard guest space each call for a different size and setup.
2️⃣ Who's living there? Think about how many bedrooms you need and whether you want a bathroom, kitchen or loft. That will guide your dome size, which runs from 16 ft to 44 ft for our dome homes.
3️⃣ What's your climate? Snow and wind affect which frame you need, and insulated liners and heating keep you comfortable from Michigan winters to Arizona summers.
4️⃣ Where will it go? Plan your site, foundation and utilities, and check your local zoning and permit requirements early.
5️⃣ When do you want to move in? Planning now leaves time to make design choices, prep your site and have everything ready for building season.
Answer these and you're well on your way to a dome home that fits your life!

Geodesic domes: what would you create inside one? ✨
A dome starts as an open, light-filled space with no interior poles, so you can make it almost anything:
🏡 A full-time dome home or a backyard guest retreat
🏕️ A glamping getaway or a whole resort village
🎨 An art studio, home office or creative workspace
🧘 A yoga, meditation or wellness space
🌱 A greenhouse dome for year-round growing
🎉 An event venue for weddings, launches and festivals
🌌 An immersive 360° projection dome
If 2027 is the year you finally build your dome, now is the perfect time to start planning.
Choosing your size, frame, windows and foundation early helps your project go smoothly when building season arrives.

Are geodesic domes good for resorts and retreats? Guests certainly think so.
Glamping domes give guests something they can't get in a standard hotel room: a light-filled, one-of-a-kind stay that feels close to nature.
📷 Memorable: the kind of stay guests photograph, share and book again
📷 Year-round: insulated domes can stay comfortable in winter and summer
📷 Flexible: build a single dome or a full village of guest suites
📷 Fully outfitted: larger domes fit private bathrooms, kitchens and king beds
Our domes are home to glamping resorts, retreats and Airbnbs around the world, from an oceanfront luxury stay in Cornwall built around a 200-year-old olive tree, to a Western Australia estate with a private spa in every dome, to the Ojai Foundation retreat in California.

Radiant Floor Heating!
People always ask if radiant flooring is worth the investment.
The answer is that it depends on where you are located. It doesn’t make much sense to use radiant flooring in areas that don’t get very cold during winter months.

The short answer is ‘YES’. The dome’s natural structure allows for constant airflow, requiring 30% less energy to circulate air, maintaining moderate air temperatures. We provide several options to transform your dome into a cozy refuge in the harshest winter climates.
Recently, the demand for recreational glamping, adventure basecamps and off-grid tiny home shelters has given rise to the manufacture of a wide variety of safe and efficient heat sources. Tent stoves offer various characteristics and features – shapes and sizes to accommodate numerous uses.
