Thunder Dome
The Thunder Dome is a multifunctional structure designed to house both compost and chickens in one efficient, symbiotic system. As the chickens scratch and turn the compost, they help accelerate decomposition while benefiting from the natural warmth generated by the process. The heat created by the compost keeps the chickens comfortable, even in cooler weather. Built collaboratively by the entire team, the Thunder Dome is a practical, sustainable solution—and a pretty striking one at that.
