Plans by Owen Geiger, Designer, brought to you by Dream Green Homes

It’s prudent to have a safe place to go to in case of emergencies, and what better place than your basement? Hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards and other natural disasters are all too common. While others panic and run for last minute preparations, you can calmly retreat to your basement (through a hidden trap door) that’s wisely stocked with everything you need to ride out the disaster.

The Plans for Sale

These plans are available as digital PDF files and are offered by Dr. Owen Geiger as complete and ready to build from. They include necessary elevations, floorplans, cross section details, and other significant construction details; they don’t show every view, every detail — just enough to build. They do not include electrical and plumbing details. The section views explain how everything goes together and should answer your questions about materials. The plans are scaled and dimensioned.

Measurements: 20’ DIA roundhouse, 314 sq. ft. interior first floor, 252 sq. ft. interior loft, 314 sq. ft. interior survival shelter plus pantry, 880 total square foot interior; footprint: 23 DIA, 23 x 31′ survival shelter.

This plan is offered with a complimentary copy of Owen's popular Earthbag Building Guide e-book (92 pages) which includes step by step directions for building an earthbag house with detailed instructions, resources and additional links to videos.

Your purchase includes:

Earthbag Building Guide e-book (92 pages PDF)

An 11-page PDF containing 7 pages of plans and 3 pages of construction notes

It is the buyer’s responsibility to find out special requirements, such as what alternative building is allowed in your county or what you have to do to get houses permitted. Are there special requirements for foundations, etc.? Do they require an engineer or architect to stamp the plans? It might be a good idea to know these things before ordering plans.
