Project: To construct a 1:2 scale model illustrating sustainable construction methods. 

Idea: A Geodesic Dome is the combination of interconnecting triangles to create a spherical object. The skeletal structure has an even distribution of load across the Dome minimizing the need for strong, load bearing material use, and sequentially saving costs and energy. The interlocking triangles with the forces of compression and tension add extra strength to the lightweight structure utilizing an open space without the need for large columns and beams.
