Dome House, the house of the future

By Dra. Graciela Salas

By using special expanded polystyrene materials with excellent heat insulating properties as residential building materials, increase cooling and heating efficiency and reduce energy consumption. Reducing the generation of CO2 which is a global warming gas. It is a building which can be contributed to the global environment.

The quality of the special expanded polystyrene material prevents deforestation by using it as an alternative to wood material. And it doesn’t produce waste material. It can be contributed to environmental treatment.

Also, the main component of special foamed polystyrene does not contain substances that are particularly harmful only with carbon and hydrogen.

If it burns happen, it will be changed to "carbon dioxide (CO 2)" and "water (H 2 0)". It won’t be occurred no harmful gas as Dioxin.

The building material for the Dome House is expanded polystyrene, "the fourth-generation building material" after wood, iron, and concrete.

Having cleared the world's strictest building codes in Japan, the Dome House is approved by the Japanese Ministry of Land and Transport.


Not only is the Dome House structurally the most stable in shape, but also, unlike iron, it does not get rusted, nor, unlike wood, does not get rotten or eaten by termites. The Dome House offers a comfortable living space semi-permanently. The streamline curvature of a dome helps to dissipate wind energy.
