Book excerpt: If you are thinking about building a new home & think you may like living in the round, then this book is for you. Written from first hand experience, two of the authors each live in a dome home. The third author, in the business of remodeling conventional type homes, responded to the distress call during the building of a dome. The result: a very informative book, easy & delightful to read. Aside from a very brief history of domes as residences & a comparative description of the three primary modern dome types, the focus of the book is the Monolithic Dome: its characteristics, basic construction, choices in shapes, exterior design elements. The remaining chapters cover the equally practical considerations on architects, contractors & contracting, building in a rural area, financing & insurance. Tips & red alerts are sprinkled throughout the book. This book is a one-stop introduction to essential considerations to arm the reader before, not after the fact, with information & suggestions. The text is amply referenced & illustated.

Download or read book Your Private Sky written by Richard Buckminster Fuller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book complements the volume R. Buckminster Fuller, Your Private Sky: Design Art Science and gives an authentic insight into the development of Fuller's architectonic, technical and anthropological concepts. This poet of technology was a poet as engineer, a thinker as designer, an artist as researcher who left an immense testament of writings - including texts of visionary importance, great consistency, penetrating linguistic force and not least of urgent topicality. The book documents various aspects of his widely ramified publications. Fuller spoke to the whole world, indeed to Spaceship Earth, the metaphor that he coined in 1950. He did this as one of the greatest and incomparably original individuals of our time in a genuinely American sense. Some of the texts are published here for the first time, such as his first programmatic manuscript Lightful Houses (1928), an informative lecture text on Dymaxion House (1929), his Letter to Einstein (1944) and the convolute Noah's ArkII (1951) as a commented facsimile. Photographs from Fuller's estate complement the texts.

Download or read book Library Mouse Home Sweet Home written by Daniel Kirk and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The library mouse learns about architecture, homes, and renovations in this illustrated adventure. When Sam the library mouse and his friend Sarah wake to find the library being packed up to prepare for a major renovation, they realize they won’t have a home during the construction. So off they go in search of a new place to live. Sam knows research is key, so he finds books about architectural styles to get ideas for building a temporary home from objects found around the library. They build and live in a variety of houses: a castle, an igloo, a yurt, a modern house, and even a geodesic dome. But none feels like home to Sam. Finally, though, the renovation of the library is complete, and they can move back to their true home, the library! The book includes photos of the real house styles discussed in the text and a relevant glossary of architectural terms. Praise for Library Mouse: Home Sweet Home “Kirk’s familiar gouache illustrations maintain a mouse perspective filled with library details. This clever presentation of world housing types has three pages of backmatter that describes each style and its location. Not only is the story amusing, but the information will be useful in classrooms.” —Kirkus Reviews “Newcomers and fans of the previous titles will welcome this tale, and librarians will put it to good use in their research lessons.” —School Library Journal “This is a fine use of light fantasy to teach a little lesson about building structures, and it will be especially useful to those preparing children for the disruptions that come with home renovations.” —Booklist
