Mexico: This 15' diameter yurt features one queen bed draped in a naturally dyed and handwoven blanket from a women's cooperative based in Oaxaca City. On the desk is a handwoven rug from a family cooperative in Teotitlan del Valle, a small town with a rich tradition of artisan rug weaving. The walls are decorated with art depicting the Zapotista's connection with the earth from the Southern Chiapas region.

Peru: In our largest residential yurt, the walls are decorated with traditional Shapibo tapestries, depicting visions and designs from deep in the Amazon jungle. Each of the four single beds feature traditional woven fabric from the Sacred Valley region.

Guatemala: The bright colors and patterns of Maya Guatemala are exemplified in their textiles. Hanging around this 15' yurt are weavings from different villages surrounding Lake Atitlan, while the queen bed is adorned with textiles depicting animals and other natural shapes. A child's Mayan Huipile (traditional shirt) also hangs on the wall, showing the art that is still worn to this day.

Cherokee: We have created this yurt to honor the traditional peoples native to the land of Seven Springs, and so this 17' yurt features art, weavings, and posters of the Cherokee language and traditional Native American lands. The one queen bed in this larger yurt is draped in a blanket from Cherokee, NC.
