the Nomad yurt from EcoShack

For earth-friendly, bohemians looking to get their groove on or eclectic, new age business-types who want to harness all their positive energy and put a new spin on “off-site meetings,” the Nomad yurt may be the perfect venue.

The easily assembled Nomad is made from nature-friendly materials, including:

Sustainable, solid core bamboo structure
WeatherMAX FR, an advanced, exterior-grade fabric that delivers “unsurpassed water repellency, mildew and oil resistance without relying on environmentally unfriendly coating compounds.”
The Nomad is also made close to home. It is designed, tested, manufactured and warehoused within a 150-mile radius of Ecoshack’s offices in Los Angeles.
The Nomad is made in small batches using a hi-contact manufacturing process.
The Nomad is designed for a long lifespan and a handmade quality.
A materials reduction approach makes the Nomad easier to maintain and recycle.

The Nomad provides an alternative habit for patios, rooftop decks, backyards and open spaces. If you run a spa, b&b, meditation bistro, or eco-tourism destination this could be a nice addition.
