Theirs was a land of bitter extremes, wind-swept steppes bounded by jagged peaks, long winters cold beyond imagining that melted into short green grassy summers when the herds multiplied and there was milk and meat in abundance. Long before the time of Christ, before Buddha and Mohammed, these tribes held a belief in the sacredness of all things and the need to keep a balance-balance between the world of people and the world of nature, and with the worlds above and below. Everything they did reflected this belief. Trees were scarce, so the herders drew from their animals to create shelter.
The original word for “nomad” came from a word for felt, making the nomads “felt people”. Designocalm — Mickey Muennig California glass domed Greenhouse... Yurt homes. Wattle & Daub Yurt.

The project made me think a lot about the underused power of the circle in architecture and society. The bamboo framework The bamboo framework anchors into the deck The wattle is woven into the yurt framework, notice the tire which aided the raising of the reciprocal roof. Gotta Getta Ger (Yurt) We have the land.

The Rocket mass heater is a hybrid with elements of this efficient wood burning stove and a masonry heater. In contrast to the masonry heater, which requires advanced masonry skills, the rocket mass heater can be built by any enthusiast with basic masonry and engineering skills. A rocket mass heater can usually be put together using recycled and natural materials such as cob, bricks, rocks and a metal barrel or cylinder. The thermal storage is large enough to retain heat for many hours or even days and typically forms part of the structure of a building. The rocket mass heaters work on the same basic principles as a masonry heater. Yurta: The Optimized Yurt.
