I was talking about selling the condo with this woman and she interjected that you could just build a tiny home on it and save for a house. I was thinking to myself.. I wasn't going to drop that bomb on you until later. Now I know you are the one.![]()

Sounds like you’re in deep smit.

That top one reminds me of the Epcot ball in Orlando, only cooler. I would love to visit that structure and see what it looks like indoors. Sadly, I couldn't afford a house like that even if I ate shit and gravy for the rest of my life. Oh well. Maybe I will one day be able to afford that bad ass one hastur posted.Montegriffo wrote: Sat Nov 17, 2018 12:48 pmBuckminster Fuller is a good read if you haven't come across him before.

So its a green house of sorts? Those look neat. Is there some structural advantage to building spherical, or is it purely aesthetic?Montegriffo wrote: Sat Nov 17, 2018 2:22 pm Check out the Eden project in Cornwall.

It's such a simple engineering design. Made up from just 2 sizes of hexagon. Minimal materials used to create a beautiful space.heydaralon wrote: Sat Nov 17, 2018 6:07 pmSo its a green house of sorts? Those look neat.

Tbh, that looks like it would be ripped to shreds in a stiff breeze. Can’t have those big plastic sails everywhere.
