Description

The Nomad is an ancient Mongolian yurt reinvented for today.  Yurts are ingenious portable circular structures easy to mount, dismount and transport.  They have been used by nomads over centuries in the Central Asian Steppe to stay close to nature and live lightly on the earth.  A yurt's advantages include strength, portability, no permanent damage to the ground they are erected upon, and an aerodynamic shape that deflects the wind.  With its central opening for a light and circular interior, yurts create a decidedly warm and relaxing atmosphere.  Recently named "the country's best yurt" by Dwell Magazine, the Nomad is perfect as an extra room for your backyard - no permits required!  Designed and manufactured by Ecoshack.  Learn more at www.thenomadyurt.com .
