A geodesic dome home
One big multifunctional room.
Cook, sleep, bathe, move, and grow plants in a single daylit volume under a 5/8-sphere geodesic shell. This is a design study — and an honest, cited resource for anyone thinking about building a dome.
Everything a home does — in one room
No hallways, no wasted rooms. A dome collapses a house into a single volume, and every function shares the same daylight.
-
Shell
5/8-sphere geodesic, translucent panels, a central oculus skylight.
-
Move
Gymnastic rings, a climbing-net loft, wall bars, open floor.
-
Nourish
A perimeter kitchen and plants growing along the glazed band.
-
Rest
Floor cushions and a round, softly sunken bed.
-
Bathe
A freestanding tub, out in the daylight.
-
Light
Biophilic daylight from every angle of the dome.
Concept films
The dome, imagined
AI-generated concept art and films — "dollhouse" cutaways and slow interior fly-throughs of the biophilic one-room dome, made with Grok Imagine.
The 3D studies
Alongside the films, the design was blocked out step by step in Blender — rough, low-fi work-in-progress, shown honestly as an iteration strip.

Bare translucent 5/8-sphere geodesic shell
-
A polished concrete floor grounds the volume
-
Perimeter kitchen counter and floating shelves
