Transparent "Igloo" Offers Sanctuary to Enjoy Your Garden Year-Round

When enjoying the outdoors, it's nice to have a sanctuary to protect against bugs and sudden inclement weather. The Garden Igloo is a transparent canopy for your garden that allows you to cherish the scenery all while being shielded under a geodesic dome. Its minimalist design offers a lot of versatility, and the product can function as a greenhouse, playground, gazebo, or quiet place to read.

The seven-foot-tall Garden Igloo can be used year-round. Its standard package includes a skeleton frame, which leaves the piece completely open and allows a nice breeze to pass through the space–perfect for entertaining friends on a warm summer night. In the cooler months, a clear domed cover shields the Igloo from the harsher elements, making it ideal as a greenhouse or for a winter garden party.
