A Truly Climate Change Proof House
ABC 7.30 Report on 17/01/19, Highlights Extreme Climate Change Heat Yet to Come
Would you like to live in a house that’s naturally cool in summer, warm in winter? Would you feel more secure knowing that your home is totally immune to every extreme that climate change brings upon us, including bushfires?
Well, you can with Domeshells: basalt fibre-reinforced, category 5 cyclone- and earthquake-resistant, and termite-proof, but they are also externally clad in a layer of perlite concrete. Perlite is known for its excellent insulation properties and high fire rating.
Domeshells plans to launch a range of modular, interconnectable dome sizes, giving customers many options to design spaces and functionality that ideally suit them.
How much does a Domeshell home cost compared to a regular house?
You may be surprised to learn that it costs about the same, even though it is engineered to still remain intact long after your average house.
Traditional forms of housing simply will not withstand some of the extremes we are experiencing right now. How will they perform as things get a lot worse, as is predicted?
