MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRIPLE DOME HOME: The Triple Dome Home is an innovative and sustainable residence originally conceived and built on campus at Brigham Young University as part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Solar Decathlon student competition.
This zero-energy house is composed of three interconnected monolithic concrete domes, each engineered to maximize energy efficiency, durability, and thermal performance. The domed structure inherently provides significant thermal mass and resilience, enabling the home to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures with minimal mechanical heating or cooling.
Inside, the home includes a two-bedroom, two-bath layout with an open-plan living area, kitchen, and functional spaces designed for everyday living.
Engineering and sustainability features include solar panels in a double-sided photovoltaic array integrated into an adjacent pergola, generating sufficient renewable energy to meet the home’s electrical demand. The solar system is paired with a SPAN smart electrical panel, which provides real-time energy monitoring and intelligent load management, allowing owners to track consumption, prioritize critical circuits, and optimize solar production for greater efficiency and resilience. The residence is constructed using monolithic concrete dome technology, providing exceptional structural integrity along with resistance to wind, fire, and extreme weather, while leveraging the inherent thermal mass of concrete to moderate interior temperatures. A continuous PVC membrane under the outer stucco shell wraps the exterior to enhance waterproofing and thermal performance, and select portions of the domes are earth-bermed to further increase insulation and passive energy efficiency. Complementing the envelope system, triple-paned high-performance windows minimize heat transfer and supports the home’s overall net-zero energy strategy.
The project’s goals were to challenge conventional residential construction, reduce carbon footprint, and demonstrate scalable sustainable building practices.
In 2023, the Triple Dome Home was a featured entry in the Utah Valley Parade of Homes, marking the first time a university-built demonstration home was showcased alongside traditional production and custom homes. Visitors toured the structure on the Brigham Young University campus, where it drew attention for its unique architecture and performance-driven design.
After the Solar Decathlon and Utah Valley Parade of Homes, the house was sold and relocated to Garden City for use as a short-term rental, allowing a broader community of guests to experience and enjoy its innovative, sustainable design firsthand.

This unique house was so fun to stay in! My kids loved the “peanut house” with the bunk beds and hot tub. It was within walking distance of a park and had peek a boo views of the lake from the fire pit. The outdoor area was perfect and cozy. The host was super responsive and everything went smoothly for our stay.

The Garden City Dome Home is a great, unique and fun place to relax and vacation with friends or family. I would definitely stay here again! The interior decor of the home leans into the round nature of the dome’s structure while still maintaining a comfortable vacation home feel. There is plenty of space inside for sleeping and hanging out. The kitchen is equipped with dishes, your typical kitchen appliances, and there is a fully stocked laundry closet, which all come in handy on vacation! The backyard of the dome has an awesome setup for spending time outside playing outdoor games/hanging out at the fire pit or the picnic table. There’s a pergola with solar panels that shade the seating area during the day, and string lights that keep the hangout going after the sun goes down. Even in the dark, lack of light pollution in this area allows for a beautiful view of the stars. The hot tub works great and has a fun colorful LED light function. There is also a grill available for a family/friend cookout! The host provided a very well put together guide of nearby attractions/excursions, restaurants, and beaches that were all very close to the dome’s location, so you can get the most out of what Garden City/Bear Lake has to offer during your stay. We had never been to Garden City/Bear Lake before, so this guide was very helpful. The host is responsive and helpful, and there are very clear instructions on how to use what the home has to offer. Check in/out was easy and quick.
