Multiple Systems
Scale to Fit
From doghouse to double-garage. One building system.
The Thiosphere isn't just one size. By adjusting the pentagon and hexagon panel dimensions, the same proven geometry scales up or down to fit exactly what you need. Connect multiple spheres and the possibilities multiply.
📐 Scaled Spheres
The geodesic geometry works at any scale. Make the panels a bit larger and you can house a car. Make them smaller and you've got a premium doghouse. Same construction methods, same materials, different dimensions.
Large Scale
~10-12ft diameter
- Vehicle storage / garage
- Workshop with equipment
- Small studio apartment
- Sauna with changing room
- Commercial installations
Standard Scale
~8ft diameter (current)
- Home office
- Sauna
- Recording studio
- Storage shed
- Guest room
Compact Scale
~3-4ft diameter
- Pet shelter / doghouse
- Firewood storage
- Hay feeder / livestock shelter
- Chicken coop
- Bike storage pod
- Community fridge / produce stand
- Little Free Library
🔗 Two-in-One Configuration
Connect two spheres with a door passage—offset from center so you keep full-size doors at each end. Two complete spaces in one parking spot footprint. Double the potential.
Hot room connected to changing/cooling space
Kitchen prep area with separate seating
Private workspace with client meeting room
Creative space with gear/materials room
Build area with organized supply storage
Private sleeping quarters with en-suite
🏘️ Multi-Sphere Arrangements
Beyond two, the possibilities are endless. Clusters, rows, villages, campuses. As scale increases, so does value—shipping efficiency improves, manufacturing costs drop, and entirely new use cases open up.
Shipping Efficiency
More units per truck. Flat-pack panels stack efficiently at any scale.
Economies of Scale
Manufacturing costs per unit drop significantly with volume.
Endless Possibilities
Communities, campgrounds, event spaces, emergency housing, and more.
Shipping is a volume problem, not a weight problem. Flat-packed finished modules nest efficiently— the labor cost for pre-assembly is often covered twice over by shipping savings.
🔧 Connector Modules
The glue that makes multi-sphere possible. Connector modules are the interface between spheres— standardized components that handle the geometry of joining two curved structures while maintaining weather sealing, structural integrity, and utility routing.
Door Passage
Walk-through connection with optional door. The primary way to join living spaces.
Window Link
Visual connection with light transfer. Maintains separation while creating openness.
Utility Chase
Route electrical, plumbing, or HVAC between spheres. Hidden infrastructure pathway.
Calling All Makers
Connector modules are an open design challenge. Like writing a plugin for popular open-source software, designing connector modules lets you contribute to a growing ecosystem while building something useful.
- Design your own connector — solve a specific joining problem
- Share with the community — open-source your designs
- Build a business — manufacture and sell specialized connectors
- Partner with us — we're looking for collaborators
