Here is another dome company to peruse,

http://www.aidomes.com/

Have been in the model house and had the factory tour, looks like a neat idea.

You may also look at surface bonded concrete structures,

http://www.drystacked.com/

And after construction it looks like a conventional house which can be a plus when you go to sell it at some point in the future.

Legos for big kids.

I wonder if the cost to ship the prefab materials compensates for the cost of traditional concrete forms.
