A Light Eco-Footprint
Lending a functional Zen-like warmth and beauty, ecoliving dome shelters have been built, just about everywhere on the planet! Now, thanks to Dragon Crete Dome Shelter Solutions from Pacific Domes, domeowners can easily convert their semi-permanent dwelling into a permanent dome home.
Already portable and easy-to-erect, freestanding geodesic-engineered domes can be quickly and economically converted into permanent disaster-proof shelters ‒ built to withstand nature’s extremes.
Buckminster Fuller understood the principles of sacred geometry that lends the inter-connected triangles of the geodesic dome its unsurpassed strength. The American Institute of Architects has called the geodesic dome, “the strongest, lightest and most efficient means of enclosing space known to man”.
Inspired by Eco-friendly MgO Air Crete
Of all the affordable housing options on the market today, geo-dome kits offer a significant savings over more conventional home construction methods. In addition to traditional dome covers, Pacific Domes MgO Dragon Crete Dome Shelter Solutions, offers an economical, lightweight, eco-friendly Magnesium Oxide (MgO) AirCrete, that can be sprayed on using a DIY spray-on injection system.
Option 1: The Traditional Dome Package
A traditional basic dome kit package includes a durable shelter cover with a bay window. Covers are made of water resistant, mildew resistant, flame-retardant fabrics, which provide lasting shelter in extreme climates.
- Hurricane-proof, earth-quake-proof and freeze-proof.
- Properly maintained, Sunshield covers can last up to 20 years or more.
- Economical and convertible into permanent shelters: when a dome’s diameter is doubled it will quadruple its square footage and produce eight times the volume, thus saving on materials and cost.
Option 2: MgO Dragon Crete or Hempcrete Injection System
Whether you’re looking to replace your cover or simply want to create a more permanent structure, you might consider a great option with spray-on MgO Dragon Crete Dome Shelter Solutions by Pacific Domes. Converting your semi-permanent dome structure to a permanent structure will add value and longevity to your geodesic dome shelter.
