This rotund country hideout is the handiwork of American artist and architect Chuck Peters, who opted to join the ranks of monolithic dome homeowners after losing his former house to a fire. He attended a one-week masterclass in the construction of these insulated, reinforced concrete structures at the Monolithic Dome Institute in Texas before returning to his native Georgia and setting to work. A custom-made inflatable airform serves as the home’s shell, while Peters crafted its siding from local white oak timber, before adding salvaged windows and doors. A set of complementary animals and a reflective pond complete the picture of rural bliss.
