Geodesic Domes

Covering the largest area with

the least amount of material,
the geodesic dome structure

is acclaimed by the American
Institute of Architects as “the

strongest, lightest and most
efficient means of enclosing

space known to man.”
Aerodynamic, earthquake-

resistant, portable and
energy-efficient, Buckminster

Fuller created the geodesic
dome as an expression of his

desire to protect and advance
all life and provide “more

and more life support for
all humanity, with less and

less resources.” Utilizing the
dynamics of tensegrity, the

structure of nature, and the
synergetic geometry of the

sphere, the geodesic dome is
perfectly balanced and creates

a resonance field with all life
around it.
