A small five-sided dome cabin



This five sided cabin has an interior loft. The floor is built above treated telephone poles. Each of the five sides is 8 foot by 8 foot.


In order to build this building legally without a building permit in California, this building was built above pre-cast piers and boulders. After completion this building was moved to different locations on the resort property.
Cost of the 4v frame (as shown in photos)
made with 2x4 struts is $4,000USD + shipping.



Vinyl faced insulation stapled on the outside of the frame before the exterior panels are nailed on, achieves a pillow effect on the finished interior.


This 14 foot diameter dome may be used as a hot tub cover.
The attractive frame may be screened, covered with plexiglass, or overgrown with grape vines. What would you do?
