I suppose is a matter of size, cost and resiliency. Materials used in house constructiom must withstand the elements, must support lots of weight and be cheap enough.

I bet the material used in thermos is expensive in large quantities, or doesn’t carry the same properties in another shape.

On top of that, houses have windows and doors, and what else, they’re hard to keep closed for that kind of isolation be effective.
