Re: Geodesic Dome House
The ones I've done were just a house with a different roof. Leaks are the main thing I've encountered.

On another note from previous clients.

Market and efficiency

You either like domes or hate domes and this can affect the marketability for resale. Narrows the pool of lookers, so to speak.

We have one area where the whole cul-de-sac block is nothing but domes about a dozen total. They just don't quite fit into any neighborhood, in some peoples opinion and have been exclude from being built in some HOA controlled areas.

Generally the "great room" is a waste of conditioned space or if they have utilized that space in the rooms design furnishings layout can be an issue for some because of the sloped wall to ceiling intersect.
