Domes - Sew Your Own Popup Dome Home

In 1979 Asha Deliverance sewed her first geodesic dome on an old Singer sewing machine,
finishing it in time to become her second child's first home.

Motivated by the work of Buckminster Fuller, she continued to build dome homes
for friends until she responded to increasing demand and opened the country's
first retail dome company in 1980.

Today, Asha has stopped sewing and relies on her team at the Pacific Domes headquarters in Ashland, Oregon
to fabric weld her domes.

The company provides shelters for families, glamping sites, greenhouses, climbing, events
(e.g. Coachella) and extreme outposts.

"To test some of the possible challenges of living on Mars, NASA joined forces
with Pacific Domes in early in 2013 to erect a 44-foot geodesic-engineered dome
on the northern slope of Mauna Loa, Hawaii."

The company offers DIY dome kits starting at $5,500 for a 16 foot (5 meter) shelter
that can be erected with their manual in a couple of days (instructions for the deck are included).

When we asked Deliverance about the frustrations of some dome builders
like Shelter Publications’ Lloyd Kahn she explained that in the ‘60s people
were building domes out of wood which required sealing multiple joints,
but that using fabric has made all the difference.
