Cone Dome
Cone Dome
Any one tired of stick built construction that steals you labor with a mortgage and fails to provide adequate storm protection? As an idea for a low cost structure we propose using cones of frozen newspaper...
The idea the being to use things in the natural environment that can be harvested to then yield a more resilient structure. Earth , leaf. hay ,and or more shredded paper....... etc.. "organics " then mixed with recycled plastic to fill the frozen cones forming "bricks for the domes construction.
The cones of newspaper are then formed referencing a chart the will give the inner orifice ( top of the dome ) and base of the cone diameters to then form the final dome diameter.
