Dome Design Toughens With Size Regulates Home/Garden Within

via

When Buckminster Fuller conceived of the geodesic dome in the 1940s he was intrigued by the efficiency of a super-lightweight structure that gets stronger as it gets bigger. He designed a version of it to cover an unfolding home (“Standard of Living Package”; 1948). In 1960 he came up with a plan to build a dome over Manhattan to better regulate air quality and microclimates. source/image(PrtSc):
