Yes Bucky's domes can be made in many sizes and sections of spheres. the least amount of material to create the strongest structure. Bucky's idea to create structures to withstand earthquakes and other forces of nature. getting used to working with triangles is the challenge. After playing with these domes you start to see how simple they really are.
Then it is just a matter of leaving the wonky-box shape behind.
If you check the roofs of some English houses,or even in the Philipines we use coconut leaves or hay...making it water-tight can be played on.
@walkofhope planned to build an artists' accomodation cum workshop on the ground floor at the #dagsa here in the Philippines. Loads of bamboo there mate.
Can you elevate the 2nd one? People can live in that.
Get a bamboo bike..i used a bmx bamboo last time.

Hiker friends bring hammocks to sleep on when they visited in Bayawan. Those bamboo domes can be built as accomodations.
INDEED and they are strong enough to hold the hammocks as well. :-)
building a watertight roof could be a bit of a challenge on that shape, but with a bit of collective brainpower that could actually be a fun project.

sounds good. :-) One big dome with various types of domes an spheres around it.
I honestly dunno what shape..it was mentioned though that bricks roofing from the Northern Philippines will be used to prevent water leaks.
They have been celebrating today so perhaps i will know more in the next couple of days. can't wait.
