Prefab Tiny Dome Home DIY Kits for Sale by Pacific Domes
Tiny house living doesn’t mean giving up a living large lifestyle. In simple terms, it means, shifting awareness from the meaning of ‘bigger is better’ to ‘simpler is better’.
“Our life is frittered away by detail… simplify, simplify.” ― Henry David Thoreau
Tiny home construction has been around on the planet for thousands of years. The reality is that much of the world still lives in small houses.
Green-Building Tiny Home Construction
No one can argue that humans have a major impact on the environment, and you don’t have to look very far to find buzz around the depletion of natural resources and habitable lands these days. The tiny house revolution raises the question, “Does tiny home construction play a role in exerting a light eco-footprint by building sustainably?” You decide – it’s not a one-size fits all response for everyone, yet, it seems to have found a niche as an alternative housing solution.
Arguably, we humans like breathing room and tend to get claustrophobic when confined to small home spaces for prolonged periods of time. Unlike many tiny homes, geodesic-engineered dome homes have very high ceilings by design – they lend an expansive Zen-like ambiance to interior living spaces.
Zen Domes are ideal for those who love the freedom of living life on their own terms – living close to Nature. With more and more digital nomads joining the ranks of the tiny home movement, it’s not likely that this trend will go away anytime soon.
“Make the world work for 100% of humanity, in the shortest possible time, through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological offense or disadvantage to anyone.” ― Buckminster Fuller
