D10
Is our best igloo; just under 4m tall; and the 2.5m threshold is far away from the edge. It is materially efficient; but takes a few more off cuts. And the snug shape leaves little exposed surface area for its volume so has excellent thermal conduction resistance. Further the shape provides rapid convection and directs infrared conduction to a single vertical line in the centre; where you sit.

Are you cold right now? Are you starfishing on the sofa or are you wrapped up in a ball?
