You can live like a Hobbit in a passive house with a green roof, no heating and no air conditioning

If you’ve always dreamed of living like a Hobbitssurrounded by nature and with a house in perfect harmony with the environment, NaturaDôme could make your wish come true. This French company creates bioclimatic homes with a unique aesthetic, reminiscent of Bilbo the Hobbit’s homes, but with a modern and sustainable approach. Let’s find out together what makes these constructions so special.

The houses signed NaturaDôme stand out for their innovative and sustainable architecture. Thanks to their dome shape and their insertion into the natural landscape, these homes completely eliminate the need for heating or air conditioning systems. As? The large south-facing windows best capture sunlight during the winter months, while the green roof naturally regulates the internal temperature in summer. This design eliminates the need for additional energy, allowing you to live without heating or cooling bills.

A strong point is also represented by the eco-compatible materials: recycled metal structures and natural insulators such as wood chips, chosen to ensure a minimal ecological footprint and long life.

Perfect integration into the landscape: a project that respects nature

Another fundamental element of NaturaDôme homes is their ability to integrate harmoniously in the natural context. The earth excavated during construction is reused to cover the homes, creating a vegetal roof that not only promotes biodiversity but can also serve as a space for grazing. As stated by NaturaDôme:

The land adapts to the house, not the other way around.

Each home is unique, with customization possibilities ranging from garages to swimming pools, always respecting bioclimatic principles.

Since 2014, NaturaDôme has built over 30 of these homes mainly in the south-west of France. Although the costs are comparable to those of a traditional house, the energy performance of these buildings is significantly superior. These houses are not just an option for those looking for an ecological home, but represent a concrete response to environmental challenges and the desire to live more consciously.
