I’ve seen a few different versions of the air inflated / poured concrete shelter concept floating around the internet,  but this one takes it to a new level:

    Once, again, thanks for the link! I happen to think airport/airline security is just another monolithic dome. I’m all on board when it starts to make sense.

      The current security kinda reminds me more of a cone- the “Cone of Silence” from Get Smart.

    Thanks for the link. =)

    I kinda dig the 4000 sq ft. luxury dome. I got my eye on one, just have to displace some smurfs first.

      Kick the Smurf’s out!

      Too funny…

    Gotta get me one of those domes!

    Thanks for the link sir!

      You are welcome. The domes are kind of weird looking.

  • John Carey November 16, 2010 at 12:18 am

    The dome kind of reminds me the Flintstones. Thanks for the link Steve. Again it is greatly appreciated.

      I was thinking the domes looked like Luke Skywalker’s home in the first Star Wars, or is it episode IV….. The movie from 1977.

      But, now that you mention it, it does look a lot like the Flinstones house.

    We had one of those domes in Flint. They called it Autoworld. It’s now been returned to dust. Sure miss the good ole days.

    • steve November 16, 2010 at 6:10 am

      Autoworld. That is something I haven’t heard of in a long time.
