Domes' house has two doors and four windows with two rooms. The housing complex was built by an NGO instead of homes destroyed by the earthquake that hit Yogyakarta dated May 27, 2006.

There are 80 pieces in the complex, located in Dome House Nglepen, Prambanan, Yogyakarta. The area was affected by the earthquake quite severely.
