In the following video, we compare the performance results between the traditional Chinese style passive solar greenhouse and the SolaRoof greenhouse. Critical issues have surfaced this way. After digging out the problems, we show a way to retrofit using the existing framework. A wonderful DIY project for you to start fresh or convert your existing…
The above video is the combination of the following three important videos, with the addition of current full line of modern designs: 1982 prototype built with a small sea container: youtube.com/watch?v=Ac72YJnFFv0 1991 tent like prototype for backyard gardening: youtube.com/watch?v=JyA8Km0Oe_E 1997 flat room prototype for large scale farming: youtube.com/watch?v=karJ6uT40BU Since September of 2020, Richard Nelson has…
Today three of us, Richard, Yang and I, had a short session simplifying the Bubble Box design even further so that anyone can build the structure using flat bars and a few accessories to its structure. Once we get the structure, then we can play with the construction of bubble generator easily. The covering material…
Yes, we line them up all in one Sketchup file. Check the video out: Let us know what you think and which style you like the best.
Yes, we have come up with a design of out of PyraPOD4s. By simply removing the four corner columns and using the next four columns as the new corner ones, now we have a PyraPOD which has a footing of only 10 feet by 10 feet. Take a look at the following short video: This…
This video is recompiled with some images added to the beginning and ending of the original video made by Cedric Born. Thank Richard Nelson for guiding our in-house designer Yang Zhou to do the Sketchup 3D frame work design based on which Cedric Born finished this wonderful visualization process.
The following video shows how one can attach four cube-like LifePODs to an enlarged version of PyraPOD8 to form a greenhouse-living hybrid structure, while four of this hydrid units form an even large community living complex that has a court yard in the middle. This way we can easily create an eco-village. Someone in UK…
This video combines two parts, the first part shows the minor adjustments to the pyramid structure on top of PyraPOD4, while the second part shows how four cube-like mini houses can be combined with PyraPOD8 to form a complex, which kills two birds with one stone: live in the mini houses while grow greens and…
This design is modular which contains Bubble Box and Bubble Tower we suggest for display and play in the Bubble Fun Festival. The U channel steel or aluminum is used for all vertical columns. For easy transportation and assembly of our PyraPOD4 kit, we break longer pieces into shorter ones (less than 10 feet) and…
