Pamela Voss and her husband own a geodesic dome home on 15 acres of land in eastern Texas. When my husband and I first walked into our 4,000 square-foot Texas dome home in spring 2021, I thought to myself: "Oh my God, this is so cool." Dome homes in our area aren't prevalent enough to have comps, so we fought back and asked if they could use traditional homes of a comparable price. Sometimes, skylights and windows in dome homes can leak at the edges because of how they are built. Keep in mind that many dome homes also need a cupola, which is a gazebo-like structure at the highest point of the dome.

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.
