DOME HOUSES

WHY KETER CONSTRUCTION COMPANY'S DOME HOUSES?

Reason 1

Our team constructs dome houses using construction and engineering technologies that aim to preserve human life and the environment

Reason 2

Heightened resilience against weather elements and natural occurrences. Imperviousness to earthquakes. The structure's intrinsic durability against high wind and snow loads is owed to the lack of flat surfaces.

Reason 3

Dome-shaped structures exhibit exceptionalenergy efficiency.

The combination of their form and integrated construction technology leads to heating cost savings ranging from four to ten times.

Reason 4

Due to their shapes, in contrast to rectangular structures, dome houses ensure even temperatures across the entire construction and facilitate improved air circulation, thereby enhancing living comfort and overall well-being.

Reason 5

Positive impact on residents due to the shape. Health promotion, longevity, harmonization, regeneration.

The dome shape positively affects human emotional well-being.

Feedback for, Alexander about living in dome house

We've been living in a dome house for a year now. Over this period, we've thoroughly assessed the convenience and comfort of this architectural solution.
‍
First of all, I want to highlight the high-quality microclimate at the home, achieved through its shape, cooling, and heating via a heat pump, and the presence of recuperators in each room. During summer, all rooms have a comfortable temperature that remains stable, devoid of sudden fluctuations or directed blasts of cold air, as with air conditioning. In winter, the absence of radiators and other specific heating sources prevents the air from becoming overly dry. Recuperators ensure a constant air exchange, crucial for frame houses, reducing carbon dioxide levels, which undoubtedly enhances the comfort of staying at home and particularly the quality of sleep.
‍
Another advantage of this climatic solution in the house is its efficiency. The average yearly consumption of a 140 sq. m. home is around 750 kWh, approximately 5 kWh per sq. m. per month—orders of magnitude less than the expenses for heating and cooling an apartment in a multi-apartment building ora house with a standard gas boiler. Other utility costs are practically nonexistent. The insulation materials in our home also have high energy-savingproperties; the house maintains its temperature almost constantly for 48 hours without the heat pump.
‍
The "second light" and the panoramic windows on the ground floor deserve separate attention. Due to them, the main spaces in the house are alwayswell-lit during the day, further enhancing the sense of space and comfort. While the round shape of the home might pose challenges for furniture placement, each room on the two floors has internal straight walls that solve the furniture and design problem. Moreover, the absence of excessive furniture against external walls visually enlarges the space. The curvature of the geodesic home allows for a substantial amount of useful space on the second floor, in contrast to standard mansard designs that accommodate a sloped roof.
‍
Overall, the experience of living in a dome house is incredibly positive. The house is economical, comfortable, modern, and very bright!
