I am Turkish but living in Texas half of my life my dream living Yurt one day. Also Yurt means in Turkish your homeland, country before Ottoman Empire most Turkish people are travel and living in similar to Yurt.
Awesome, taking a idea that is probably if not hundreds but thousands of years old and refining it for our climate. I have a friend who is a missionary in Mongolia I am going to forward this video. Bravo👏 I want one!!
Wow fantastic design and all that insulation so much thought has gone in. The attention to detail, taking a traditional design and making it so warm cosy the simplicity yet so user friendly is wonderful
Love it - I live in Ontario - although there is not much insulation, it’s also small and simple so it would be inexpensive to heat - I think it would be perfect to have 1 good sized yurta as the main living area heated by wood pellet stove - then 2 small yurts, one on each side, with small electric heaters - 1 small yurt for bedroom and the other for bathroom
Muy buena manera de construir un espacio interesante, con ideas innovadoras. Felicito al diseñador y constructor de estas cabañas tipo yurtas mongolas. Una forma práctica de crear un ambiente acogedor para recibir amigos en cualquier época del año.
I really like the portability of this design and the way the framework goes up. The one thing about using such an open lattice frame is I don't think it feels as safe as a typical lattice frame.
Watched a Vid of the "step people" assemble a Ger/yurt. Depending on the season it will have a 2-3 inch cover (or two) then an outer layer......Quite cozy with stove goin'.
Great video, I've been a fan of their yurt for quite a few years and shown them off on the Tiny House Blog. Your video really brings it to life though as I've never seen one of the Yurtas in person. Thank you!
As german scouts we use yurts too. But ours are a very different design. We use to make fire in the middle and it's designed to be put up and down very quickly and for only a couple of weeks in maximum. There is also a german youtube channel called Jurtenland which mostly talks about black yurts in particular.
I think they look amazing and would love some to fit onto a living area making a house but I don't know if my belongings or person would be secure enough
Hello Guys! The typical question is : how is it doing in winter? I'm in Quebec, and it can get down to -45C sometimes, and I was wondering if it could work well with a little rocket wood stove? Thank you for the great video! :)
A stretch outer cover treated with ever dry that has door and window openings. That stretch over a aluminum skeleton with the stretch cover securing to the window and door frames with the windows and doors slipping in from the outside and swivel latched on the inside to the aluminum frame for a weather right fit. Then a insulated inner cover that is attached to aluminum skeleton with push pin fasteners. Design the whole thing in two sections like a circle cut in have to make it easy to move around. Then design the top to push open into a dome sliding shingles and the bottom to be the base. A lite weight portable yurt that you could even add a loft or second floor depending on the size you make. Be really cool to have one of them bests a a tent any day.
Very briefly, we considered this when looking at "green" house alternative. But, hard to keep comfy where winters get cold and summers are often 100 degrees.
Would be interesting to know if they thought of lightnings hitting the tent... Certainly one bigger issue in comparison to a standard house. I know this might be too much to ask, but it would be good to know whether they at least have an idea for how a Faraday cage could be provided (maybe through the skeleton if a different material is used?)
Beautiful 😊 What is the average life of the roof material vs. the wall material? Exposure to the sun and other weather elements. I know they have been in use for centuries, but I'm curious, how often will I need to replace the exterior material. Thank you!
"Yurt" is a Turkish word that is still being used for dormitories. Also we call our country as our "yurt". These traditional turkish tents are still being used on higher altitudes here in our country. In summer we climb to higher altitudes for fresh and cool air and also to feed our animals. Soo we still do use exactly same tents here. People living their whole life in these tents are called "Yörük" people. The word comes from "yürümek" verb. Which means "to walk" in Turkish. These people (my ancestors used to as well) stay in these tents whole their lifes travelling to lands of grass for their animals and trading. You can easily come accross with such huge families if you are travelling around Toros Mountains region. One important thing is that we prefer goat wool rather than sheep. That is because goat wool is better for climate controlling. It keeps warmer in winter and cooler in summer and much more retardant to fire and water. That is surely a fact. Unfortunately it is not easy to find such spinned and woven goat wool these days. Like my grandma used to do and i loved to watch. Fabricated stuff do not work as well as experienced. You must go up the mountains or wait for them come down once in a summer. Any one who is willing to reach the sources for real can reach me here.

if you put a yurt in the middle of the footrdy you should probably own a riffle or a good bow for such encounterbecause even if a yurt is pretty strong the canvas and wool will be no match for the claws of a hungry bear.
True but safety means something to me. I don't mean acreage J just a little yard and garden. Mainly making sure that the place is still here when I return
I have been thinking... is it feasible to use a yurt structure and skin it with light straw clay? I think it would be beautiful, more durable and warm/cool for a more permanent structure.
As a mongolian, This yurt is very mongolian like only it's more modern. He done amazingly creative yurt and I really love this.
I hear traditional yurts are very colorful on the inside. Either way they look so cozy!
As if being Mongolian gives credit but I still trust you lol
How much it cost
@@daulatsinghrathore5997 the cost differs between the sizes, but 850 sq feet traditional ger (that’s what we call yurt) costs around $750.

Compared to other designs this one is definitely most practical. Love them!
Wool is an incredible insulator against both cold and wind. ❤
I really enjoy how you edit the videos, how you allow your subject to be heard.
Very beautiful and functional design. Pat's enthusiasm for his work and his skill with refining the traditional design for North America is wonderful.
This is by far the very best design I have ever seen.
Love it - I live in Ontario - although there is not much insulation, it’s also small and simple so it would be inexpensive to heat - I think it would be perfect to have 1 good sized yurta as the main living area heated by wood pellet stove - then 2 small yurts, one on each side, with small electric heaters - 1 small yurt for bedroom and the other for bathroom
I'd love this as a guest house.
So many Countries have so many neat tent...Yurt type structures. Very Nice.
Beautiful product -- well done. I like that they didn't try to reinvent the wheel.
One of the nicest Yurt I have seen. Good materials and construction.

Fantastic! This video has the highest yurt rate per minute of any other I've watched.
Did I mention I love the word yurt?
Haha, thanks John :) We love that word too!
Maybe so, but the method is all wrong.
wordreet I'm not sure what you mean. I view this project as a blend of old ideas with modern techniques.
John Norris
No no, you just put some milk in a pan and warm it up for a while, then leave it for a while. Easy!
:¬P
John Norris I wish I didn't read that, can't stop hearing yurt now hahaha
What incredible structures! Thank you for sharing. I dream of such beautiful simplicity in my life.
i bet it would be good to see the stars through the clear piece in the yurt
Pat is a brilliant man....a hard worker too!!!
Absolutely well done video. The Yurt fascinates me and this was a very informative video. Thanks guys!
Excellent job! Nice upgrades to the original design.
I've known about the Yurt for many years. It's California dreaming for tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.
I was inspired by your video,and I am going to make such designs for my African continent.I will however use grass thatch for the roof.
Make a video I'm watching from Jamaica
Nice yurts however this makes me soooo glad that I purchased a Jaia Yurt (New Zealand). My yurt is a handmade work of art.
Wow, this looks beautiful and very well thought-out!
I really like the portability of this design and the way the framework goes up. The one thing about using such an open lattice frame is I don't think it feels as safe as a typical lattice frame.
impressive sample to make a perfect home.
Awesome! This video answered a lot of questions for me :) Thank you both!
Very nicely done. The best of old and new.
I truly appreciate that your a perfectionist. I love the design. Thanks for a great detailed video.....
That Dome is so sweet.
Watched a Vid of the "step people" assemble a Ger/yurt. Depending on the season it will have a 2-3 inch cover (or two) then an outer layer......Quite cozy with stove goin'.
This would be great as a backyard spa retreat!
Is, that yurt, tied down some how? In, Case of bad high winds.? Great job.🤗🤗🤗🤗
Beautiful, I would love to live in one! Thanks for the amazing video.
You're very welcome, thanks for watching!
Woooo!!!! No indoor pumbling yet? Once it happens it will superseed any tiny home.
So I am looking at putting up a Yurt in a tropical environment. What changes in the linings can I make to better handle humidity, heat, and bugs?
Great video, I've been a fan of their yurt for quite a few years and shown them off on the Tiny House Blog. Your video really brings it to life though as I've never seen one of the Yurtas in person. Thank you!
Thank you Kent! We wanted to illustrate the whole assembly process and make it as clear as possible so I'm happy you enjoyed the video =)
that floor is going to be FREEEEEEEEEZING.
No the floor gets insulated too.
Love it! So many alternative housing info in Ontario and Quebec!

Some yurts matter

Awesome. What a great structure to have by a river for summer relaxation. I'd like one of these lovely buildings. ~Smile!
Ciecie Newson yes indeed 😊😊🌼🌹🏵
Yesss I would love this too, I wonder could one be bought for less..
Not for $10.000

This is an awesome channel! You guys deserve way more subscribers. I'm going to have to shout your channel out to friends and family on social media.
Thanks so much Mitchell! Happy you're enjoying our channel and thanks for sharing it with friends :)
HE DID NOT MENTION ,HOW LONG YURT COVER LAST? LOVE TO KNOW I LIKE THEM
Very briefly, we considered this when looking at "green" house alternative. But, hard to keep comfy where winters get cold and summers are often 100 degrees.
You can add a stove vent to them so that they are heated with a tiny stove.
Excellent video, You-rts rock!
Thanks for watching Marko!

I know this might be too much to ask, but it would be good to know whether they at least have an idea for how a Faraday cage could be provided (maybe through the skeleton if a different material is used?)
One of my peeves about tiny houses and the lack of storm protection unless its a
berm type.
Very nice. ...would love to live in one.
Beautiful 😊

Thank you!
You sold me. im joining the yurt gang!!
Did you ?
@@reformedchinesecommunist nope
@@whiteafricannun3377 thanks
I would love one of these
That looks super portable.
Even the deck is portable, nice.
I really like the YURT idea. Nice video.
Thanks WannaBFree =)
best presentation well done
Wow thats very good .
Тhank you from Mongolia
I would love to live in one of those
Very beautiful and innovative modern design. Now, if they could only come up one for the Native American teepee.
totally in love with these.
I can only dream of one of those!
Excellent yurt
Excellent explanation!!
Inspirational. Great video :)
House of 3 tents / California. Not the Yurts!
Brilliant design
Great video, y'all!
Thanks for watching Scott :)
Great information! Thank you for the video.
You're very welcome Lynn :)

Old Mongol word meaning---"Can't afford a house"
Is the word genocide in the turkish dictionary by any chance?
this was a great explanation!! thank you!!
Lack of timber in Mongolia was a major factor in the development of the Yurt . . . Also try pulling a mobile home on the steppes. . . .
The word yurt is Mongolian, likely brought to Turkey by Genghis Khan and the them.
Beautiful, I have stayed in one before, loved it!!💓 Roomy but wonder what about bears and things.
if you put a yurt in the middle of the footrdy you should probably own a riffle or a good bow for such encounterbecause even if a yurt is pretty strong the canvas and wool will be no match for the claws of a hungry bear.
Personally would have a hot fence around the place. Barb wire on the outside of the yurt too
@@deetngator1624 yeh but you also loose a part of the magic of living in nature surrounded by plants and wildlife not fencing and barbwire,
🌲🌿🐾🐕🐗🍄🐿️😄
True but safety means something to me. I don't mean acreage J just a little yard and garden. Mainly making sure that the place is still here when I return
Thank you for sharing.
looks good! quality stuff
I wish I had the money for one. I'd live in it year round.
I'm so inspired after watching your video. Do you have a kit that you sell for others to build the same yurt as this one?
Looks like a very well thought out design. My only question is did you look at insulating the floor?
Great job!
That was really interesting, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching Jenny :)
Great job! I only wonder if we might see light weigh aluminum used rather than wood which is rot proof, stronger and similar in weight. Just an idea
The next $10K I have sitting around, I'll get one. Looks well made.
Build one for 2k
Thank you. Lovely.
Nice job!
Like all the attention to Canadian winters But why isn't the door insulated with perhaps a round window?
How sturdy is that when the wind is blowing thirty mile winds.
Fabuloso. Fantástico. Maravilhoso
Fantastic!
nicely done
Impressive. It would be more independent of the grid if you have solar panels. I would feel at home with this tent.
Me and a Walrus both like a tight Seal !!!
These seem to be cheaper than many tiny homes and moveable.
Excellent
I have been thinking... is it feasible to use a yurt structure and skin it with light straw clay? I think it would be beautiful, more durable and warm/cool for a more permanent structure.
Brilliant!
