You dream about a simple and comfortable yurt you can build yourself?

DISCOVER THE FLEX470

Ultra-nomadic yurt, transport it with a simple car, including a bamboo structure, a made of blankets insulation (woolen / polyester), an anti-condensation system and an ultra resistant PVC tarpaulin

This yurt is easy to build for a budget from 200€ to 1000€ according to chosen materials (recycling or new)

THE TEAM

Oliver at the end of his engineering studies at Arts et Métiers ParisTech, begins a 2 years worldwide travel

As soon as back in France, he builds his first yurt (June, 2014) on his own model

After 6 months living in this yurt, he sets up the fabriquersayourte.fr website to share his experience and his knowledge through construction workshops

Anne after her first workshop, joins the team of fabriquersayourte.fr

She volunteers since January, 2016 in the project’s broadcasting on Internet by managing the Facebook page and by answering your questions

HOW IS BORN THIS YURT?

The conception of the flex470 is based on 3 fundamental axes

- comfort which is comparable to that of a traditional yurt while being adapted to the oceanic climate

- ultra-nomadism of a housing environment that can be knockdown, that is storable and easy to transport, offering to its owners physical security without being an administrative, logistic or economic weight

- cost and simplicity of a type of housing feasible in a few days by everyone and at a lower cost

Materials order of preference 1 - Natural materials / 2 - Recycling materials / 3 – Basic materials (thread, nails, screw)

This shelter is as easy to set up as a tente and as comfortable as a long-lasting housing

Oliver has all plans and personal writing down necessary for the construction of the yurt and his floor We already filmed all videos for the construction guide (7 hours of video rush)

Today we have to digitize, put in words and clarify the technical documentation, then editing video and add explanations

By helping us to finance this work of editing, you confirm the viability of our project and allow its broadcasting

In return get a 30 % discount on the CONSTRUCTION GUIDE

(180€ instead of 250€)

Exclusivity reserved to the first 10 KissBankers

Technical documentation of the FLOOR INCLUDED

All these documents will be stored on an USB key which you will receive at your home
