Anyway, I thought you might find this information interesting - as it's a part of housing's past (though it very much looked like the future). The Dymaxion House got it's name from inventor Buckminster Fuller - who combined three of his favorite words (why they were his favorite - the world may never know):
- DY-namic
- MAX-imum
- tens-ION
And the house was very much like a big umbrella - with a big central mast that could ship folded up (think a closed umbrella) in a big metal tube just about anywhere.
Though designed in the 1920's, nothing was ever built until after World War II (in 1945) when Mr. Fuller thought the time was right for the innovative housing.
Could something like this spaceship-looking house actually work in today's world? I mean.....just look at the Tesla Truck.....
I'd love to hear your thoughts! Just hit REPLY and let me know!
