Can you Imagine What Your House Will Look Like?


I want to inspire you to dream a little as well as give you some ideas!  Dome and cylinder house plans are generally the same. â€‹


Micro House; 50 SqFt

Need Something Cheap, Easy to Build & NOW?

20 Foot Tiny House; 314 SqFt

Affordable, Easy Functional Starter Tiny House With Actual Bathroom

Starting small and with the basic is the most ideal place to start.  By starting small you can gain experience and finish your project in a timely manner and get a "win" under your belt.  This is very important if you have never built a house before.  Any project will have moments when it seem like it will never end.  Just keep making progress and you WILL finish! If you start with a large project you are more likely to be so overwhelmed that you give up or discover you can not afford to finish it because of unplanned expenses!  Starting small will guarantee you succeed and give you the experience you need to be successful on a much larger project. It will give you great confidence knowing that you will never be without a home; you can always build one.  Your tiny starter can always become a bathroom or closet later! 

16 Foot Diameter Tiny House; 201 SqFt.

 A Nice Cabin or bug-out location for 1 or two intimate people. This build gets the job done in a fairly comfortable manner.  If built as a cylinder you can put the bed on a loft above the bath area or even add a second story.

24 Foot In Diameter; 452 SqFt.

This is the first size I consider a small house.  It is functional and yet not overwhelming to build.  With room for a small walk in closet, washer & Dryer, kitchenette, and Sitting/Living area.

There is no limit to the ultimate size of your house. Just be sure to layout and design with expansion in mind!  I really do not recommend building AirCrete Domes larger than 32 Foot!  As the dome grows you get above the ground at unsafe distance to fall.  They do allow for second stories however.  Never hang a second floor directly on AirCrete.  Either use a bond beam or support your second floor on pillars and walls from below.  Its also important to allow 2 inch expansion joints between the walls and the side of the dome.  This prevents dome cracking when the dome contracts during cold weather.


Overlapping 32 Foot Diameter Dome

Domes can overlapped or Arches can connect any number of domes together.  This is a 3 bed room house.

35 Foot Overlapping Domes

Another 3 Bedroom Dome.  This time with less overlap between domes.

 You Can, of-course, combine different sized domes

Connecting Many domes is the best way to build with AirCrete.  This allows you to complete it in sections and not build a single dome that is to big.

AirCrete can be used for Rectangle Houses as well.  Most often you will put a conventional roof on a rectangle house.  The roof must rest on a bond beam and be anchored to the foundation by cable, rods, or pillars.  The AirCrete can be shaped and stained to look like most anything you desire!  Build a castle and inlay it with gold colored foil and place giant vinyl Da Vinci artwork on the ceiling! Your imagination is the limit!

Cylinder Houses are easy to add multiple stories.
