These images are all from Domespace homes — circular homes designed to rotate 330 degrees as it follows the path of the sun. It takes passive energy from the sun when it needs warmth, and it turns away from the sun when it needs to cool down. Red cedar shingles don't need any special wood treatment, and raw cork inserted between the beams provides insulation. The company is based in France, but Domespaces are starting to pop up all over...

It´s great! I love it. I'd want one of this to get a great time in my favourite beach: Aguas Dulces, here in Uruguay.
I like all those windows to catch the best of the sun. Warm in winter and cool in summer! And the best colour of de red cedar looks very nice.
This house is beautiful! I love the fact that it rotates to track with the sun. This house must have taken a lot of wood/energy to build though. I found these guys, the same geodesic concept but they use solar power panels in their windows, the dome doesn't move the domes are strong vinyl and make killer geodesic dome homes too:
