Conceived by visionary architect R. Buckminster Fuller as the home of the future, the Dymaxion House was designed to be the strongest, lightest and most cost-effective housing ever built. Over the last decade, it has assumed an iconic presence in Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. To some people it’s a giant Hershey’s Kiss. Others sense a kinship with the Airstream travel trailer. Painstakingly restored, it’s the only remaining prototype in the world.

Go on a guided tour through this one-of-a-kind home. Please note that the historic design of the Dymaxion House does not accommodate wheelchairs or strollers. However, the home may be viewed from the deck at the top of the ramp, and a special exterior presentation is available upon request.
