This spectacular dome with an underground tunnel is no longer in use, even though it sits on a privately owner estate. Built in 1890, the underground space was used as a ballroom and billiard or smoking room.
An earthbag dome can be used for an emergency shelter in the case of a hurricane or a tornado, a cool pantry or a root cellar, a quiet place for relaxing or playing music, or an escape for the winter cold, or a cool space in summer.
