AGA Member Spotlight: Ekodome

Their journey began with a commitment to build better spaces, driven by a passion for new designs and innovation. In response to the growing demand within the global glamping market, Ekodome proudly expanded its product line, unveiling the insulated Pro Series kit and interior module.
The debut of the first 22’ Terra Pro Series kit at the Glamping Show in Denver, Colorado, garnered widespread acclaim for its innovative design and superior craftsmanship. Attendees were particularly impressed by the thoughtful space optimization, allowing for a queen-sized bed, loft bed, kitchen, and bathroom within the dome, along with a unique touch of Turkish hospitality mindset.
