These are the Binishells tiny and small housing solutions. It’s a dome-like structure that can be used in many different ways. Here are some examples of how they can be used as tiny homes, small homes, and duplexes.
This construction method uses less labor and materials than conventional building methods, but what do you think? Is it something that you’ve heard of before? To explore more interesting tiny homes like this, join our Tiny House Newsletter.
This is Ella and Doug’s Catskill Bungalow and their Dome in Hensonville, New York. They’ve owned their tiny house, which they’ve named the Catskill Bungalow, since 2005.
So later they built a geodesic dome as an additional structure on the property. Now they’re able to earn income by renting them out as vacation rentals. Here’s our interview with them below along with a photo tour of their tiny homes. Enjoy!

Right now I want to focus in on these awesome dome cabins that can sleep up to four people. Inside you’ll find a fireplace, heater, bunk beds, living area with plenty of seating, kitchenette area, and a full bathroom for your convenience.
The cabins are definitely NOT tiny, and hardly small, at approximately 1765 sq. ft. each. But I still thought the design was inspiring and could be used for inspiration on a smaller scale. And the existing dome renovations are in fact small (and both are just awesome), as you’ll get to see below.
The Dome Garden is a unique place to stay. It’s located in Coleford, Gloucestershire in the United Kingdom.
What’s there to do there? Besides being surrounded by nature and tranquility, it sits between two famous rivers that are known for great canoeing and fishing.
And it’s two hours away from London.
There’s an interesting group of geodesic domes that can house two to six people each in the middle of the ancient Forest of Dean.
One of my favorite parts besides the peaceful setting is the domes. They have windows and are self-contained.
Plus there are a few different sizes to choose from in case you’re going alone, for a romantic getaway, or with the whole family…
There’s a 20ft with a shower, 24ft with a bath, and a luxurious 20ft with a spare bedroom dome. All of them have their own place to shower or bath and the water is heated by wood burning stoves. And yes, toilets are in there too.
In addition each one has its own kitchen with fridge and food. Then there is something they call the “dome-itory”, it’s a 24ft dome that can sleep up to ten people with privacy in their own little “cocoons”.
