HABITABLE CUPOLA SEEKS CLIENT

A hitherto unknown construction system is offering itself for the first time as a mansion to be built.

The model shows a one-storey cupola house with a diameter of 17 meters and 9 meters in height. The visual external static skeleton consists of customary high-grade steel elements, the integrated cupola bowl sports a copper-glass-layer and is going to be insulated against heat, cold and sound, just like the standards in modern passenger aviation.

The interior structure and extension of the habitat are free, not obstructed by any statically-necessary construction.
The cupola bowl is not supported anywhere by the interior structure.
There is the possibility of total interior refurbishing or new house building without having to encroach upon the self-supporting external building.
Like a theatre stage the interior structure may be mounted or dismantled ­ it has its own rules of static.

The size of the building depends from the individual demand for space.

Possible disadvantage: The worldwide unique and future-oriented construction is going to exert a great amount of attraction on photographers, interested visitors, the curious or journalists.
