Working from experience and years of study Buckminster Fuller found a following through his theories on geometry, engineering, and housing. He was particularly interested in developing housing for the greatest number of people using the least amount of resources, according to his creed, "more for less." He published his proposals as well his theories in publications spanning nearly five decades. Unlike other visions, some of Fuller's housing proposals—the geodesic dome being the most popular—made it past the page.
