Built for
the land
you love.

Tensioned canvas over hand-milled lattice. Overnight shelters that feel like permanent homes — dropped into meadows, ridgelines, and coastal bluffs without a single poured foundation.

Scroll

Every yurt begins as a pencil line on a site survey. A measurement of prevailing wind. A photograph of where the light falls at four in the afternoon. We build from the land outward — never the other way around. The frame is hand-milled. The canvas is tensioned by hand. And when someone sleeps in it for the first time, they rarely want to leave.

Three structures.
Infinite sites.

Each model began as a response to a specific terrain challenge. None of them are tents.

Napa Valley, Spring 2024
Model 01

For flat meadows and rolling pasture

Meadowlark

Our smallest footprint — 18 ft diameter, sleeping four. The Meadowlark was designed for vineyard owners converting a single acre into a bookable escape. Low-profile crown ring reduces wind load. Setup in two days.

Designed for the guest who wants to wake up inside the landscape, not above it.

Model 02

For elevated terrain and exposed sites

Ridgeline

Built for the couple who bought raw land with a view. 24 ft diameter, engineered for wind exposure up to 85 mph. The Ridgeline uses a doubled lattice wall and a high-tension roof system that breathes in alpine conditions.

The frame-raising takes three days on steep ground. Worth every hour.

Model 03

For salt air, sea views, and boutique sites

Coastal Bluff

The most requested model for boutique hospitality founders. 28 ft diameter with a marine-grade canvas that resists UV and salt spray. Interior height of 11 ft creates a loft-ready volume. Three-unit sites are our most common commission.

At this scale, guests stop thinking about shelter. They start thinking about staying.

Week 1–2

Site Survey

We visit your land. We measure wind direction, sun arc, slope, and drainage. We photograph the view you want to frame. Every decision downstream starts here.

Terrain assessment, soil report, permitting research

Week 3–5

Design Development

Pencil sketches become scaled drawings. We select the model, orient the door, spec the canvas weight, and choose hardware finishes. You receive a bound drawing set.

Week 6–10

Frame Milling

The lattice is hand-milled in our workshop from select Douglas fir or white oak. Each khana section is numbered, fitted, and packed for transport to your site.

Milling, joinery, quality inspection

Week 8–12

Canvas Fabrication

The roof and wall canvas is cut, sewn, and tensioned at our studio. Seams are double-stitched and heat-sealed. Every panel is tested before it leaves.

Day 1–3 on site

Frame-Raising Day

Our crew arrives at your land. The frame goes up in one day. Canvas follows on day two. By day three, you are standing inside a structure that belongs to your land.

Structural assembly, canvas tensioning, final inspection

Handover

We walk you through every tension point, every seam, every vent. You receive a maintenance guide, a re-tensioning schedule, and our number — for the first winter.
