Our yurts come in one of the five basic
colours shown to the right. Orange, red,
light blue, dark blue and green. On top
of each base colour, each yurt
component is then decorated with
traditional Mongolian designs that
compliments your base colour. We can
also offer yurts with no Mongolian
designs if you prefer. Or even a custom
colour scheme, so if you have been
searching for a pink, white or even gold
yurt, do let us know.
Please read our guide to colours
below. Colour really does have an
impact on how you see the world and
how the world sees you.
Important: colour tones may vary
depending on your screen settings
and other variables. The colour of
your yurt may appear differently to
those colours listed here.
Orange:
Around 95% of yurts in Mongolia are orange as this is the traditional colour for a yurt. Orange
symbolises the sun, and the roof poles radiating from the centre of the yurt symbolises the suns
rays.
Red:
A striking colour. Often used for temple yurts due to many Buddhist temples being painted red.
Can be a difficult colour to live with but excellent for commercial uses due to it's striking
appearance.
Light Blue:
Well suited to a yurt in Western Europe. A combination of the easy to live with and dramatic.
Whilst still bringing brightness to the interior of a yurt.
Dark Blue:
Not a traditional yurt colour but one that is popular in the West. Gives a yurt a "distinguished" feel.
Designs tend to be more prominent due to being painted on a dark colour.
Green:
Again not a traditional colour, but perfect if you are going to be siting your yurt in a green field
environment and do not want your yurt to stand out. Has a very calming effect.
