Dome House
Dubbed the house of the 21st century the styrofoam dome house has all the qualities of a good home. You might not think that styrofoam is not the best material for the house but the Japan Dome House Co., Ltd insists that styrofoam is perfect material for building houses.
The Dome House does not rust, rot or attract termites. It is also highly resistant to earthquakes and typhoons. In addition, the walls, which are treated with a flame retardant, emit no toxic fumes in a fire.
Assembling the house is fairly easy. Each section weighs 80 kg and it takes 3 hours to put the house together. The floor space of the dome house is 475 sq ft (44.2 sq meters) If it’s not enough you can attach a second dome to the house.
The price for the house is $30,000 not including the cost of transport, assembly, interior construction, etc.
