The structure is made of a deformable, thin section support net in composite material and of a double elastic layer of synthetic film. The exterior of this film is embedded with photovoltaic cells that provide sufficient energy for the minimal support equipments in the unit. This surface can be configured as per the external environmental conditions and physical surroundings. The inner surface of the film is made of transpiring fabric with strong thermal conservation capacity. Further, the two openings (entrance and central light) can be locked with removable elements.
