Bryan Lemmel of Balanced Carpentry [4] built this beautiful ”Zome” in his backyard in Asheville, NC. Inspired by sacred geometry and Buckminster Fuller [5]‘s geodesic dome, the structure was built using mostly dumpster bound wood. Lemmel built the Zome primarily as a play structure for his two daughters (there is a slide and swing set connected), but it also does duty as a meditation space and music studio for the entire family.
