Couple Spends A Year Building Their Dream Yurt And It Looks Amazing

一對夫婦花了一年的時間建造他們夢想中的蒙古包，它看起來棒極了

Home is where love resides, where memories are created, and family feels welcome, or however the saying goes. Be it all those cheesy things or not, every person needs a home. Some inherit it, others buy it, and then there are those who build it with their own hands. Zach Both and Nicole Lopez are the kind of people who shaped their own den with the help of friends and family.

家是愛存在的地方，是回憶創(chuàng)造的地方，是家人感到受歡迎的地方，無論這句話怎么說。不管是不是那些俗氣的東西，每個人都需要一個家。有些人繼承它，有些人購買它，還有一些人用自己的雙手建造它。扎克和妮可·洛佩茲都是那種在朋友和家人的幫助下打造自己巢穴的人。

They didn’t just build any house, as one would assume. The couple decided to go for a yurt. And while the word might bring images of simplicity and minimalism to mind, this yurt’s interior design tells a completely different story.

他們不像人們想象的那樣只是蓋房子。這對夫婦決定建造蒙古包。雖然這個詞可能會讓人想到簡約和極簡主義，但這座蒙古包的室內設計展示了一個完全不同的故事。

Both created a site titled “Do It Yurtself” where he not only details the process of constructing your own yurt out of a kit, but also offers helpful insight to anyone who decides to do something similar. The man describes the site as a friendly advisor. “An opinionated right-hand man who provides insight to those interested in building a yurt and embracing an alternative lifestyle,” the young filmmaker says. “This helping hand is free to use and completely void of expectation for something in return.”

兩人都創(chuàng)建了一個名為“做你自己”的網(wǎng)站，在這個網(wǎng)站上，他不僅詳細介紹了用工具箱搭建自己的蒙古包的過程，還為任何決定做類似事情的人提供了有用的見解。該男子將該網(wǎng)站描述為一個友好的顧問。“他是一個固執(zhí)己見的得力助手，為那些對建造蒙古包和擁抱另類生活方式感興趣的人提供洞見，”這位年輕的電影制片人說。“這只援助之手可以自由使用，完全不需要任何回報。”

In an interview with Bored Panda, Zach revealed some details on the project. Like the fact that it was Lloyd Kahn’s iconic Shelter book who introduced him to the world of yurts. “Among the pages describing indigenous building methods and vernacular architecture, you’ll find a smattering of paragraphs dedicated to the traditional tent-like structure often used by the nomadic tribes of Central Asia,” he explained.

在接受Bored Panda采訪時，扎克透露了一些關于這個項目的細節(jié)。比如，正是勞埃德·卡恩(Lloyd Kahn)的標志性作品《庇護所》(Shelter)把他帶到了蒙古包的世界。他解釋說:“在描述當?shù)亟ㄖ椒ê袜l(xiāng)土建筑的頁面中，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)一些段落專門描述中亞游牧部落經(jīng)常使用的傳統(tǒng)帳篷狀結構。”

“The finished yurt is 730 sq ft with an additional bedroom loft that adds approximately 200 sq ft to the space,” Both told Bored Panda. He reiterated how easy it actually was to construct the yurt from a kit. “The actual yurt was built during a single weekend with a group of friends—most of whom had barely picked up a drill before,” he added. “Nicole and I stumbled through everything from running plumbing and electrical lines, to framing walls with sheetrock and resurfacing our salvaged wood flooring. It was our first time attempting any of it. The yurt acted as our construction laboratory where we could experiment and learn many new skills that we’ll carry into future projects.”

“完工的蒙古包面積為730平方英尺，另有一間臥室閣樓，增加了約200平方英尺的空間，”兩人都告訴Bored Panda網(wǎng)站。他重申，用一個工具包建造蒙古包實際上是多么容易。他補充說:“真正的蒙古包是在一個周末和一群朋友一起搭起來的，他們中的大多數(shù)人以前幾乎沒有拿過鉆頭。”尼科爾和我跌跌撞撞地走過了每一段路，從鋪設水管和電線，到用石膏板給墻壁裝框，再到重鋪廢棄的木地板。這是我們第一次嘗試。蒙古包是我們的建筑實驗室，我們可以在那里進行實驗，學習許多新技能，并將其應用到未來的項目中。”

“Our own little oasis about 20 minutes outside of downtown Portland. 30ft in diameter. 730 sq ft w/ an additional 200 sq ft loft. The exterior structure is a kit that we built (most yurts in the US are manufactured by about 10 different “yurt companies”). Interior was completely custom.”

“我們自己的小綠洲，離波特蘭市中心約20分鐘車程，直徑30英尺。730平方英尺，額外的200平方英尺閣樓。外部結構是我們建造的一個工具包(美國大多數(shù)蒙古包由大約10家不同的“蒙古包公司”制造)。室內設計完全是定制的。”

“Day 1 at the site. Attempting to clear as many of the overgrown blackberries as we can”

“第一天在現(xiàn)場。試圖清除盡可能多的過度生長的黑莓。”
