Eco-Dome Living explores dome architecture as a sustainable housing solution, especially for arid climates facing water scarcity. The book champions eco-domes for their structural efficiency, thermal properties, and water harvesting potential, challenging conventional norms. It introduces eco-dome living as a practical solution, where dome homes offer benefits such as resilience to environmental stressors and reduced resource consumption through passive solar design and thermal mass.
The book progresses from the history and science of dome architecture to practical guidance on material selection, construction techniques, and water/waste management systems. Case studies illustrate real-world successes and challenges of existing dome communities. By blending technical information with examples, Eco-Dome Living provides a comprehensive guide for those interested in sustainable architecture and alternative housing, from architects to environmental enthusiasts.
