There are as many uses for a yurt as there are creative individuals. Everyone needs "a room of one's own" and with Nomad Shelter Yurt Design, that room is affordable and immediate.
Studio Space- Yurts make great studios for art or exercise. The top lighting from the skylight and bright white interior is easily lit in a natural way. The circular environment can be inspiring for art and creative efforts.
Yurts have open floor space with no interior structural beams or wall divisions, providing open space for stretching out, dance and physical and martial arts.

Rentals- Yurts are proven rentals. They are easily furnished as overnight bedrooms or as studio apartments. Their uniqueness and aesthetically appealing interiors make them easy to market to young and old alike. As B-and-B additions or daily, monthly, yearly rentals, a yurt on your property can generate extra income.
Remote Camps- Yurts go where you go! They can be transported in small airplanes(a 20-foot diameter yurt fits in a Cessna 207), freight sleds and skiffs. They are lightweight enough to be easily moved off the road system. Yurts are strong, warm and easy to heat.
Yurts leave no footprint. Because they are lightweight, placed on block foundations, they won't scar the land and can easily move with the seasons.
Or stay put! Insulated Nomad Shelter yurts are used as year-round, primary residences by families living close to the Arctic Circle in Alaska.

Teenager space- Anyone who lives with a teenager knows how much they crave autonomy. A yurt gives a teenager the practice he or she needs in caring for their own space, separate but not far from your watchful eyes. A yurt in the back yard can promote peace in the family...especially where drummers and lead guitarists are concerned! (Yes we speak from experience.)
Conference Rooms- An open, unique space for your meetings or conferences, a yurt can provide the right atmosphere to communicate. Group dynamics are best in circles. People facing people to meet, discuss, create together--what better space then a yurt to put the needed charge in your business gatherings!
Schools and Classrooms - Yurts are bright and light and warm and cozy. A classroom in a yurt is already a fun place to be. That hurdle crossed, it's up to you to add inspiration to the
"out-of-the-box" thinking that comes naturally in a circular space!

Emergency Shelters- Why doesn't every state have a vanload of insulated yurts at the ready? Yurts assemble in less than a day, providing immediate shelter in emergencies. Fire Departments could have some on hand for those who need safe, warm shelter. Does your community have emergency housing available in storage, or is it relying on "rigid" (i.e. vulnerable to physical disaster) housing? Encourage your town or state representatives to consider yurt emergency shelters. Meanwhile, be prepared with your own yurt just in case.
Student Housing - A yurt on a small piece of leased land can make low-budget housing an option for a student who prefers some privacy for study.
