History
Methods of construction
Dome homes
Fuller hoped that the geodesic dome
would help address the postwar housing
crisis. This was consistent with his prior
hopes for both versions of the Dymaxion
House.

Related patterns
The building of very strong, stable
structures out of patterns of reinforcing
triangles is most commonly seen in tent
design. It has been applied in the
abstract in other industrial design, but
even in management science and
deliberative structures as a conceptual
metaphor, especially in the work of
Stafford Beer, whose "transmigration"
method is based so specifically on dome
design that only fixed numbers of people
can take part in the process at each
deliberation stage.
