Poster: FamilyManDude (see this users gallery) This is a rough layout for the structure that I plan to place over my sunken greenhouse called a Walipini. These are widely used in rural Boliva.

Looking at this now, please, look into the topic "hesperidium" somewhere on the net, it is very similar construction originating in acient Italy, when people needed to have warm places without having to heat up in the winter.
Good luck with building.
