The
idea for this home came from the idea of making a hurricane proof house. Living on the coast of one of the most
hurricane prone places in America, Pensacola Beach, the Siglers were sick of
rebuilding their entire home after almost every tropical storm season. They came up with a plan to try to get
a house that could withstand a hurricane.
Then they found Dragon Speed Design Group who designs Dome’s. They then came up with the idea to
create the Hurricane Proof house.
They used curved walls and roofs to “bend” water and wind around the
building so that the house can withstand the drastic weather conditions the
area experiences. They really came
up with some very new and creative ways to build magnificent houses with great
strength.
