Joining Yurts
to Create Separate Rooms
Yurt Pods allow two or more yurts to be joined together, creating separate rooms while keeping the flexibility and character of a yurt.
A larger central yurt can be used as the main living or working space, with smaller yurts connected as bedrooms, studios, treatment rooms or other private areas.
How Yurt Pods Work
A single yurt creates one open circular room. By joining yurts together, you can keep that open central space while adding separate rooms for sleeping, work or other uses.
We use the term Yurt Pod for the smaller yurt connected to the main central yurt.
It can be used as a bedroom, studio, office, treatment room or another separate space.
This creates a modular arrangement that can be adapted around the way the spaces will be used.
The Yurt Join System
The yurts are connected using our Yurt Join system.
Each yurt is fitted with a specially made joining frame, allowing the two structures to meet through a covered connecting section.
The yurts remain separate structures, so the layout can be altered or the yurts separated later if required.
Example One: Living Space with One Bedroom Pod
A 14 foot main yurt can be connected to a 10 foot bedroom pod.
The central yurt can hold the kitchen, seating and stove, while the smaller yurt provides a separate sleeping space.
Example Two: Living Space with Two Bedroom Pods
A 21 foot main yurt can be joined to two 10 foot bedroom pods.
The main yurt can hold the kitchen, seating, stove and general living area, while the smaller yurts provide separate bedrooms.
A separate connection can also lead to a conventional bathroom or utility room.
We do not supply the bathroom building, but the Yurt Join can be designed to connect a yurt to another structure.
Planning a Joined-Yurt Layout
The layout depends on the size of the main yurt, the number of pods, the position of the doors and windows, and how each room will be used.
The platform and site should be planned as one complete arrangement, with enough space for the connected structures, access, drainage and any paths or decking.
Because each yurt remains a separate structure, the arrangement can be more flexible than trying to divide one very large yurt into permanent rooms.
