Wow! That's ultra cool! Here's the one that tickles me. If you watch closely, you can see it in the background of some of the shows on BBC.
Be patient and wait for the photos to load. Awesome. Beautiful. Organic in appearance. Energy smart. Among many other remarkable buildings, this same firm did a gigantic arboretum in Scotland and a subterranean flight museum in England.

NOW that bubble house called FUTURO is adorable-- very 60's looking, so maybe that is the appeal, memory.

But...the roundness of the Futuro domes seems like much more useable space than the "container-like" eco house design. Plus you can see the interior better, no so broken up of with skinny runway dining room & LR areas...
