Fabulous are they earthquake proof?Funky buildings for Christchurch! Love Rosie

@Affirmationart Hi Rosie :)

These buildings are designed to withstand natural forces such as earthquakes. Dome shaped. Up to 200 yrs.

Longer than most conventional buildings - whats up with the leaky buildings in Akld? The materials and building code/ethics aren't really working for the people. PLUS these are cheap to build. 10-15K. Living in harmony nature increases the quality of living as well eating organic and breathing good air. Working with your body, definitely staring at the future!!

@Affirmationart PS: Also compost toilets means our 'gifts' go back to the earth as nutrients not out into our waterways. The flush toilet is so bad news bob and needs to be on it's way out ;)
