Cool! I've built a few super adobe domes. Made out of dirt (and sweat!). I love round housing.

There was a guy who sold kits for geodesic domes a while back- was always in popular mechanics classifieds

A guy on the mountain up from me built one of those. It looks so cool up on the hill

These are concrete spayed on an inflatable form. Needs a concrete pump & BIG compressors. See monolithic.org

Thank you, I'll check it! Here's the ultra low $ building system I've been into in VT, CA, and BC: https://www.calearth.org/intro-superadobe

Neat! Thx! I love tech that owner-builders can use, it's where we got started. Straw bales etc. Unlike many of these, MCDs are scalable
