The word geodesic means the shortest lines between two points. Geodesic construction has its own history. This construction was first unveiled just after World War I. And over the years constructors have made different types of specifications based on geodesic domes. So, what is a geodesic home? Are there any geodesic dome home problems?

Geodesic dome home designs:

Geodesic homes have a dome-shaped structure with no walls or other obstructions. Because of this, the building enjoys proper ventilation and the shape also helps to reduce the heat. The temperature of the house remains normal due to the structure. It’s neither too hot nor too cold. Since winds move around the curved exterior there is less possibility of wind damage.

 

Although geodesic homes are easily designed there are some problems which we should know before diving into the building process.

 
  • Some building codes prohibit the construction of geodesic homes. So, to build a geodesic home you need to obtain permission from the authorities.

  • Geodesic homes can lead to a lot of wastage since triangles are cut out of rectangular sheets of metal or plastic.

  • It is hard to find furniture or appliances that go well with the setting of a geodesic home.

  • Leakages occur between the windows and roofs.

  • Sounds in a geodesic home echo a lot which can create noise.

  • Geodesic domes cannot be sold easily.

  • In a humid region, the geodesic home can be the main reason behind mold formation since the wet air rises at the top of the dome. So, it's better not to construct a geodesic dome in a humid environment.

 

I hope you understand the geodesic dome home problems now.
