Building designs from DomeShells Technology
09/07/2008 - By Chris Brown Multi-Dome Homes offer more than just a unique look and feel...
DomeShell Homes - the future of housing - today!
DomeShells Technology has developed a unique composite building system which is suitable for a wide range of applications and particularly for “Compound Curved Sandwich Shell Structures” such as domed shaped buildings.
Developed over 7 years in collaboration with Queensland University of Technology specifically to meet the extremes of “climate change” this unique building system is expected to meet any international building code and will provide strong, safe and energy efficient homes in any climate zone.
DomeShells Modular Range of Domes from 3.0m to 12.0m diameter is available as stand alone buildings or can be linked together in various ways to form multiple dome homes. Utilising GRC technology and closed cell polyurethane foam, (one of the most efficient insulating materials available) the DomeShells are not only lightweight but capable of category 5 cyclonic winds, massive earthquakes, are exceptionally energy efficient, fire resistant, termite proof and low maintenance.
The inside of a shell feels light, airy and spacious. As the shell requires no internal support and internal partitions can be placed in any configuration. DomeShells are suitable for cabins, multi-dome-homes, tourist accommodation, indigenous housing, mining town accommodation, disaster relief and particularly extreme climate situations.
