Are you familiar with Bau Biology? It's a German school of thought that has some powerful insights worth looking into. I have been applying their concept of our house as our '3rd skin', to treating the property line as the '4th skin' of a Macro-biome.
Also, I'm applying 'Pattern Language Design' from Christopy Alexander to scale down Bucky Fuller's idea of a 'World Game' to more of a 'Dynastic Family Wealth Game'. One that stacks an entire vertical of essential daily needs for our families in order to create a resilient enduring legacy. i.e. Private Family Citadels. Our homes can only become living centers by treating them as growing ecosystems, not merely dead boxes we reside in.
This design is the basic cellular unit of a scalable pattern with infinite variations. Laying out these patterns on a Pentagonal grid will also take advantage of the Phi ratio, Fibonacci ratio, mirroring the pattern layout nature uses.

Notes (4)
Without meaning to make a joke, I made a friend laugh yesterday when I quite seriously said "I don't like gambling, so I only hold Bitcoin".
Not seeing any contradiction in this at all, I didn't even notice any irony in this statement. He's missed out on a lot of gains by holding shitcoins this last few years and found my comment hilarious.
I expect that my fellow Bitcoin Standard Bearers in here fully understand the logic of my position, though. I treat digital fiat as a hand grenade liable to explode at anytime and paper fiat as a hot potato that will burn me if held for more than a few moments, getting rid of them as quickly as I accumulate them.
Myself, everything BUT bitcoin feels like a gamble with the odds stacked against my even keeping current purchasing power, with little chance of increasing it. Especially, if priced in sats!
Life is short, guys, the future is uncertain, you never know what day will be your last. So act accordingly, say whatever needs said to your loved ones!
Thankfully, I healed a multi-year rift with my younger brother this Spring, because I just found out he was killed in a car crash this morning. His health was failing and his body was breaking down making life a burden that he suffered, so now he's been released from his mortal coil and better off for it.
In our list of essential daily needs, shelter supersedes the need for air, food, and water, because without it none of the rest matter and you will still die even IF you have those daily consumable items. Shelter is also the only need that businesses share with living beings. Decentralizing manufacturing of small, appropriately sized, tooled, and resourced shelters is essential for us to remain sovereign in our personal and professional lives.
The costs for providing shelter to ourselves, our families, and our businesses has been driven up by fiat monetization of real estate. Compliance and fees increase costs of building by at least 25% and for many families these days the cost for shelter is 50% of their monthly expenses. In large part, ALL of this is because what gets built is what will be financed, inspected, and insured.
I've designed and built this appropriately small structure with off the shelf tools, largely upcycled, durable materials. Built with easily acquired skill sets that many already have, or can easily acquire. Having already acquired the tools, learned the required skills, and learned on my own dime while building this prototype proof-of-concept I'm now making it available for physical inspection in the Austin, TX area.
I will ONLY be accepting Bitcoin for payment to build these micro-dome igloos, that require no permits from centralized bureaucrats. Soon I'll be sharing the Pattern Language Design recipe in a long form Nostr note for those interested in portable, semi-permanent, or permanent handcrafted installations combining ancient and space age technologies.
This is NOT the cheapest option, as I've designed and built this for my own use as the pre-manufacturing plant to allow me to build more of these as a nomadic builder. But, I can still keep the entry level product down to $55/sq ft, while delivering a far superior product than almost anything currently available in the #tinyhome and #glamping markets. The version pictured here is a semi-permanent version, as I've assembled this on a rental property knowing that I'll have to disassemble and relocate it someday.
Reach out in my DMs if you're interested in "permit-less" shelters for youself, your family, and/or your business.
