I built my tiny dome home on a large organic mango farm far into the countryside of northeastern Thailand. After receiving an amazing response from around the world, my dome-building friend Hajjar Gibran and I have created a new website to provide you with more inspiration, designs, tools, and training: www.DomeGaia.com
I had my dome home up and painted in six weeks.
The cost for the basic structure was under $6000. Adding doors, screens, a pond, an upstairs patio, stonework, and landscaping took a few more weeks. All this, including furnishings and plumbing, was under $3000. ..Bringing my total cost to about $9,000. Please keep in mind this is in cost-friendly Thailand.
See this video of Hajjar explaining how we built my dome home: • How We Built this Dome...
The song "Reflection" is off my Bird of Passage CD, available here: steveareen.bandcamp.com For more information on my Thailand Dome Home visit: www.steveareen.com Cheers!

Steve you are a genius and your house is an inspiration to all - we don't need huge mcmansions. The essence of the Way is detachment. And the goal of those who practice is freedom from appearances. And you are proving this

Agreed, most people don't need a big home. However, the size of the home ultimately depends on how many people are planning on living with you.

@joyceyancey553 7 жыл бұрын

So homey! Love those window nooks and the oblong shapes! The gorgeous lacquered slab table is also perfection in that spot! The huge round living room window for a picturesque view is ideal! The most beautiful and inviting tiny home I have ever seen! Hats off to the builder and designer!

I agree with Jeff DeWitt, it definitely has character - one can read your special, personal attributes through the creation of your home. It's very serene, the earthen colours give it its warm - welcoming touch, mingled with the coolness of the water and lush. It seems like a touch from the 'Garden of Eden'! I wish you much health and happiness in your awesome home, Steve.

Wow my mind is exploding with ideas here Im sitting in a bungalow in the currently rainy Brazilian atlantic rainforest. Thanks so much Steve for sharing your home, photos, music, everything. I think you got a spectacularly good energy and I really appreciate what youve shared. Im currently adventuring through South America on a quest to find lots of things, and amongst them a property to build myself just one of these. So maybe one day Ill put up my video, too. Lots of love to you man, Abração //Sebastian

That is one of the most beautiful homes I've ever seen in this size. Unfortunately, it can't be realized where I live...stupid building regulations forbid that kind of creative houses to be build. However, It has for sure given me inspiration for a project for my garden. There are no regulations that forbid me to build a "shed for gardening tools"..lol.

great but looks a bit dangerous...slippery stairs and platform. I'd add bushes to the left of the initial staircase(to catch in case of a slip), and some sort of railing system for the hammock area. How much did it cost in materials? It is amazing. Love the window sills large enough to lay in. Everything about this is great.
