In 1929 Buckminster Fuller began plans for a grand vision, the "Dymaxion House." Dymaxion is a syllabic abbreviation of dynamic maximum tension. These houses were manufactured as kits and designed to be able to be situated anywhere and with little impact to the enviroment, while being efficient with resources, and affordable. These homes challenged peoples ideas of home architecture, and suggested Fullers utopian vision of a new way to look at how we live and our meet our needs. I know I would LOVE to cozy up here...
