Second, geodesic domes are for large areas and volumes. If you're talking about a building smaller than a sports stadium you do not need geodesic design because building materials are already geodesic on the atomic level and because their strength relative to their size is sufficient for "human scale", uh, scale. Domes as homes are a design failure. They look cool. You cannot put your furniture against a curved wall. We tried it, it sucks.
