An igloo, also known as snow house, is a form of shelter built entirely of snow. The primary material used in constructing an igloo is compressed snow since solid ice is known to be a poor insulator.

On the inside, the snow house is terraced so people sleep at the uppermost level, leaving the bottom middle area for working and setting the fire. How does an igloo Keep you Warm?
