Many People in the North Prefer to Live in Cisterns. The Reason is Incredible!

What makes a house a home? Some people would say the warmth of togetherness, while others would say the warmth in general. Up in the freezing Northern parts of the world, life is challenging with extremely cold weather conditions and gusting winds. The terrain also poses enormous challenges for easy transport and water storage. In this harsh environment, innovative people learned how to convert cisterns into livable homes. You may find their features surprising, thanks to their special heating and ventilation systems and the possibility to customize them in detail. But what is the primary reason that pushes people to voluntarily choose to live in these incredible cisterns?

Cisterns are practical in their shape, are easily ventilated from front to back, have less roof space to reduce heat, resists snow collection, resistant to wind damage as there are rounded sides and nothing for the wind to grab hold of, are attractive in shape, blend in with the environment, are esthetically pleasing, are cheaper to build due to material options for molding, allow for exterior fittings, are more easily moved, can be used for storage and are suitable for almost any environment. They maximize interior space and can use recycled materials in their build. We should be exploring these for options in the "tiny home" industry, as they are much more visibly attractive than structures that look like storage sheds.
