Do you see an article about a service or product or would you just like to know more? Do you crave instant gratification for free?
Have you always wanted to call the editor of a magazine an idiot?
Come to the Yahoo Group Dome_Living, it's where this all started and is the letter to the editor page. And, it's free!!!
Thank you for Viewing
As some of you might have noticed, this site is slowly being revamped and updated.
Why?
With the advent of higher energy prices, higher building material prices, and higher prices in general, the geodesic home using a third less material is garnering more interest then ever. This is the only magazine that is dedicated to the Geodesic home and I hope it fulfills the needs of all those who are interested.
Here are the current plans of what I intend to have this magazine do. I will have links and articles to help make the most of your energy consumption, whither you live in a dome or remodeling a hundred year old farmhouse. There is new technology coming from Europe where the cost of fuel is still twice the cost of ours and there is new technology being developed as we speak, all in an effort to allow us to live more comfortably using less energy.
Speaking of Energy, there will be a section that will include solar and wind energy. I am very excited about the new technology of both. Being in the Pacific Northwet, where I live withing spitting distance the only rainforest in the Continental United States, the new vertical wind turbines are of real interest to me. As they spin, the present a solid wall which makes the birds stay away from them and not get hit by the spinning blades as the horizontal turbines do. We will cover these.
Also in the future, we hope to have a bulletin board up and running, much like Yahoo groups. But for now I invite you to join the sister group of this website called Dome Living, there is link to this group. If you don't want to join because of Yahoo, just know it is also on RSS.
Again thank you for your time and continued interest of this website and I hope you are excited and will be pleased as we evolve.

Once again thank you

Send us a picture of your dome and show it to the world!!!
The spherical structure of a dome is one of the most efficient interior atmospheres for human dwellings because air and energy are allowed to circulate without obstruction. This enables heating and cooling to occur naturally. Geodesic shelters have been built all around the world in different climates and temperatures and still they have proven to be the most efficient human shelter one can find.
Dome Living Magazine
This is Dennis and Tessa, Owner of Natural Spaces Domes. They have recently completed their dome and have written an E-book about it. Click on the picture to see all the steps needed to build a dome.
Somebody had to do it, I just wish it were me. There is now a paper magazine devoted to domes. For more information visit:
