I saw a program where they used big balloons as forms to make concrete domes that were linked as seperate rooms and covered with earth.

Here's a link to a concrete dome home that looks like it was built in a similar manner, just completely above ground.

Not part of the in-crowd since 1952.

A dome would probably make a nice 'love nest' in the woods kinda like an alternative to an A-frame, but I can't picture a family of 5 living in one. Plus I think I might go batty with the lack of square walls and right angle corners.
