Dome homeowners said the structures' energy efficiency saves them money on energy bills. Geodesic dome homes — like this one, pictured in Baiting Hollow, New York — are designed to withstand natural disasters. Voss's home is built out of a geodesic dome, which means their roof is made of triangle-shaped pieces. Courtesy Pamela VossSouth said one bonus of monolithic domes is that the construction yields less waste than geodesic domes since it's one continuous piece of material. Bremner also said monolithic dome homes can be more leak-proof than geodesic domes since no individual components can come apart.
