Campbell Dome House
Overland Park (Johnson County)
Listed in National Register Mar 7, 2022
Architect: Campbell, Bob D.
Area of Significance: domestic; single dwelling
Architectural Style(s): Modern Movement
The Campbell Dome House is an 80-foot diameter dome enclosing a courtyard and 2,500 square feet of living space. The dome house is a single-family dwelling situated in a typical suburban neighborhood. The dome is a steel-framed structure designed in the style of a Schwedler dome. The radial supports are braced with rings of cross supports so that the structure forms trapezoids instead of triangles found on the more common geodesic dome. The dome is an example of mid-century modern aesthetics, most notably by blending indoor and outdoor space.
