Yurts: Taking Your Business Outside
It seems an unspoken rule that all modern businesses never have enough conference rooms free. So here’s an idea – go sit outside.
During my Archaeology degree here in England, when the weather was good enough (a rare occurence), our lecturers would hold seminars on the lawns outside the department, snaking a power cable inside when electrical equipment was required. The only distraction was the view – a tent around us would have been ideal. And that’s the thinking behind the Nomad, a spacious, luxurious tent modelled on the Mongolian wood-framed yurt (or more correctly, ger). Makers Ecoshack are keen to point to the eco-friendly manufacturing methods and materials that go into making the hard-carved frame and polished wooden floor.
Spa parties. Temporary office space. Artist’s retreat. Luxury garden camping in the heat of summer. Have I missed anything? As long as you can find somewhere relatively quiet, this is a practical and stylish way to mix business with pleasure. And if you want a trial run, sign up for a "yurt holiday" (like the ones in England or France).
For more on the yurt / ger, have a look at this fabulous resource over at SimplyDifferently.
