Eco-Dome Pods are Portable
Due to their portability, eco-dome pods go just about anywhere on the planet to create an extraordinary snow glamping experience. The spherical design of a geodesic pod derives its structural strength from inter-connected triangles that create a free-standing framework.
Eco-Dome Pods are Energy-efficient
The energy required to heat and cool a dome is approximately 30% less than that of a conventional building. There are no corners to obstruct the ambient airflow within the dome’s interior ‒ thus, less energy is needed to circulate air and maintain optimal temperatures.
