Dome Village
Dome Village in Los Angeles features transitional shelters for homeless people. Eight common domes include a community center, kitchens, and bathrooms. Each dome offers 314 square feet of living space. The shell of polyester and fiberglass is supposed to be easy enough for a pair of people to assemble within four hours with a screwdriver and a wrench. Craig Chaimberlain designed the 21 panels making up each structure to be connected by Teflon bolts.
