Now you can build your very own Hobbit Hole

[EG]

A company called Monolithic Domes are now selling their dome homes all over the USA and Canada



these concrete, steel structures are proving the ideal way for those in Earthquake and tornado zones to protect their homes.  Their distinctive shape and design make them more stable during these events

Currently schools and churches are also using the design ...

Soooooo when are they coming to the UK!

check out some pics!

OK, now that purple one is just weird  :-X  and the middle one looks like it's about to say "Take me to your leader" but I do like the picture one.  

[Lessa]

I agree with you about all three pictures Anne. Also I think the purple one looks more like a childrens playhouse at the bottom of the garden.

Why does this look familiar? Perhaps it was used as a scifi film set? Well without the fountain anyway.

  The purple play house one is funny, Its like something out of teletubies  
On the other hand the top picture is good, i would live there. I wonder how much it would cost  

[Lessa]

Way too much probably

Hobbit Holes!!!!!!


In the words of Pippin:

They come in Hobbit Holes? I'm having one!

[Aiwendil]

Awwww, they are lovely!
If I go to live in America I am so having one!  
Although I still can't get my head around them replicating Hobbit Holes as houses,   I mean I love them and everything but don't you think that they should stay in the film, or otherwise be on sale all over the world instead of just in America?

[Galáril]

But everything's sold to America first, then dispenses all over the world, so they'll get here, eventually.

[Jezebel]

God they are really ugly!

I wouldn't want to live in one of those!

[EG]

WOW!  I love that sunken dining table how cool is that?  Now all I need to see is a sunken jacuzzi just like that and its sold to me!  

[Lessa]

Yes the interiors are definitely better than outside.

Lessa

[Jezebel]

The inside looks far better than it does on the outside!  I would like to live in one of those, just as long as no one else could see it

[Galáril]

AWWWWW!!!

Starting to wish I hadn't quit the paper round now....

*goes all practical*

Yeah, but you'd do your back in trying to serve food at that table.  And it would be a real pain to hoover under too.  And that kitchen worktop looks totally impractical.  And what's with that big bricked up entrance.  I'd keep imagine a tank about to come through it or something.  

Do like the mezzanine shot though.  Could just imagine curling up in the sun and reading a book there.
