People in Glass Houses Should Throw Parties

I had done some research and pasted to my virtual vision board a green, pre-fab home where I want to retire in comfort and with a clear conscience that I've done a small, anonymous part in sustaining life on this tiny rock for the next generation. I found the modularity, greenness, and affordability of blu homes products like the Element to be particularity fetching. But that was a month ago. Earth Techling presents David Fanchon's eco-friendly pearl-dome home. Check this domicile out! Some kind of passive solar collector/deflector showplace. Some kind of style. Some kind of bragging rights. The bay windows beckon the lower winter sun, the shielded, insulated roof dampens the summer sun. It's geometric. It's scientific. It's green and it's cool. I'm sitting here in the rainy, cold Northeast, fervently waving my hand in case Fanchon deigns to choose a passel of bloggers to see his eco-friendly, aesthetically-stunning piece of practical architecture. "Ooo, ooo, ooo, Pick me. Pick me, Please!" Enjoy the tour at the link.
