IGLOO CIC (Community Interest Company) Est 2025 Powered with Generative & Agentic AI. (formerly 'Hexayurt Project' - 2005)
From north to south Katie IGLOO is offset from the boundary, this is because Katie IGLOO is taller than 2.5m. However; the barrelled vault structure of Katie IGLOO means she can move closer to the next door neighbours boundary than she would otherwise be able to do. This leave enough room for a path.
The long barrel vault is good for sound and heat due to the low surface area to volume ratio; however still not as good as a dome would be; in this case there is a 6 foot width; which is just right enough for most sofa and most desks.
With a soft Mylar interior this space is excellent for recording music.
Katie is the longest of the igloos.
The space is not so 'useable' by grown ups and this is by design. Emma Igloo fosters independence and autonomy; and is specially for the child to store and organise their favourite little toys themselves. Her we have shown just a few examples; but even these toys are not the special small ones I am talking about here.
Emma resists snow load and wind load really effectively and reflects the heat radiation back into a single spot; as I say this is the strongest rated IGLOO and if you an unsure of how long you need to keep the IGLOO this is the best for you.
