Supervised Build: On-site guidance available upon request.
Turnkey Solution: Full professional assembly and interior finishing provided.
Post-Installation Check
Quality assurance includes a final inspection and optional follow-up checks at 1 and 5 years.
On-site arrangement
The building owner, in cooperation with a local building advisor or contractor, coordinates on-site construction, material delivery, and overall project organization to ensure a high-quality build.
Standardized Building Materials
All building materials are standardized and readily available at most local building supply stores. Easy Domes provides the building owner with comprehensive manuals, detailed construction drawings, and a full materials list – including quantities, dimensions, and specifications.
Optional Material Packages
Building owners may also request delivery of optional materials, such as specialized flooring, insulation, wall finishes, technical installations, and energy systems. These can be tailored to suit specific project needs and preferences.
Construction Support & Supervision
The building owner is responsible for hiring local skilled labor or contractors to carry out the construction of the dome house. KT-Architects provides guidance during the initial phase of the build, including on-site support for mounting the dome, installing windows, aluminum flashing, roofing, and exterior cladding.
Throughout the construction process, the building owner should engage a local contractor or building advisor to oversee the work and ensure quality standards are met.
Upon completion, KT-Architects makes a final inspection of the finished building, along with warranty coverage and liability insurance for up to five years.
Mounting of dome
The dome is erected by first positioning the quadrangle and hexagon sections on the plinth, aligning their predrilled holes. Iron bolts are inserted through the holes to loosely secure the elements together.
Next is assembly of all base sections along with the corresponding wall and roof sections.
When the dome is erected it must be Adjusted and aligned on the plinth before fully tightening any bolts. Once properly positioned, the dome is secured to the plinth using iron bolts.
Windows
Windows Installation and Specifications
The windows are custom-designed to fit the dome’s window sections precisely. During installation, special attention is given to ensure proper connection with the aluminum flashing and the dome’s wall and roof covering.
Window Certification
The windows are crafted from hardwood—either mahogany or pine—and are fitted with double-glazed energy-efficient glass. They offer excellent thermal insulation with U-values as low as 0.1.
Manufacture and Delivery
All windows and doors are handmade in a professional joinery workshop and are delivered in accordance with the conditions outlined in the General Conditions for the Provision of Works and Supplies within the Building Sector (AB92).
Aluminum flashing
The 0.8 mm aluminum flashing is custom-fabricated to match the type and dimensions of the wall covering, as well as the windows and roof. It is installed using screws equipped with washers and gaskets to ensure a secure and weather-resistant seal.
Energy and climate
Indoor Climate and Energy Efficiency
The Easy Dome house offers excellent internal air and heat distribution. By using natural insulation materials such as sheep’s wool, flax, wood fiber, or cellulose (recycled paper), combined with proper ventilation of the external climate membrane, the interior climate conditions are optimized for comfort and sustainability.
Thanks to the exclusive use of certified natural materials on interior walls, and the application of dense, high-performance natural insulation, the traditional plastic vapor barrier can be eliminated. This allows the walls to “breathe,” supporting natural air purification and moisture regulation. To effectively minimize heat loss and meet energy efficiency standards, insulation thicknesses of 300–400 mm are recommended.
Floor Construction
A typical floor build-up may include 300 mm of pressure-resistant insulation beneath a 100 mm concrete slab, topped with a wooden floor structure for comfort and finish.
Airtightness and Ventilation
The building system ensures a highly airtight structure, tested to achieve an exceptional air leakage rate of just 0.01 liters/m²/sec (maximum allowed is 1.5 L/m²/sec). For larger domes, a ventilation unit with a capacity of 160 m³/h is recommended at the dome’s apex to maintain air quality.
Energy Systems and Renewable Integration
Air-to-water heat pumps paired with solar thermal collectors provide highly efficient heating solutions. Additionally, photovoltaic solar cells and integrated roof panels with battery storage systems are readily available on the market, offering sustainable, off-grid energy options.
Dome Assembly and Final Construction
Once the base and plinth are completed, the dome can be erected and fitted with windows and aluminum flashing. The exterior cladding, roofing, and other related work follow traditional timber construction methods and are carried out after the completion of sanitary, heating, plumbing, and electrical installations.
Construction and Installation Overview
Exterior Wall Cladding: Covered with either wooden boards or solid panels, depending on design preference and structural requirements.
Roofing: Includes full roof construction and installation of gutters and downpipes for water drainage.
Interior Build-Up: Comprises insulation, wall framework, and internal wall coverings.
Flooring: Installation of heated floor panels, partition walls, and construction of loft rooms as needed.
Technical Installations: Includes complete systems for water supply, sewerage, ventilation, energy distribution, and routing of cables and piping.
Interior Fixtures: Installation of kitchen, bathroom, and technical room equipment.
Compliance with Building Regulations
Easy Domes are designed to comply with Danish and EU building standards. According to the Danish Building Code (BR18), the maximum allowable annual energy consumption for private housing is defined in kilowatt-hours (kWh) per square meter of net floor area (A).
Max: 30,0 + 1000 = kWh/m²/year A(m²)
Example:
100m2 house: max energy use
Passiv house
40 kWh/m²/year
15 kWh/m²/year
KT-Architects deliver energy documents and result report according to Be18 calculation program.
