Easy Domes
An igloo inspired DIY house that can be built in 2 hours.
Introducing the Easy Domes concept, the word easy can be regarded as a key word. The Easy Domes building kits are manufactured as high quality wooden sections ready for mounting at building site. The dome construction is easy to assemble with only steel bolts and nuts. Small domes can be erected by manpower in 2 hours, while bigger domes need a crane. The structure is suitable for all kinds of terrain and implementable to all climate conditions. The spatial building offers many interior arrangements, low energy and sustainable building possibilities as addition of two or several domes. The Easy Domes construction is easy to manage for home-builders as professionals.
