Short Description of Work

Camping tents are highly similar to traditional nomadic yurts in Kyrgyzstan in terms of use scenarios, internal structure and exterior styling. From the perspective of existing equipment and living habits, we provide young families with short-distance travel and rest solutions with national characteristics. Through research, we know that local families have the need to go to the suburbs for short trips and gatherings on weekends, and also want to have a product that can meet the convenience of travel while maintaining the elements and spirit of the national traditional yurts.
The zenith of the nomadic yurt represents the starry sky of the universe, and we also restore this element at the top of the tent. The tent uses an air column as a support structure, uses an electric air pump to inflate, and can be easily put into the trunk of a car after storage. There is no need for multiple people to operate together during construction, and inflation can be realized within a few minutes.

Tell us about your creative practice, and how your work engages with Chinese design, society, environment or culture.

The design of this nomadic style inflatable camping tent is inspired by the use, internal structure and appearance of traditional yurts in Kyrgyzstan. The design inspiration and elements come from our research and collection in the process of field gathering and exchange in Kyrgyzstan. Therefore, we give this product more mission-so that it can show the charm of culture and traditional craftsmanship.
In the course of our research, we interviewed and learned that local families have the need to go to the suburbs for short trips and gatherings on weekends. They will use traditional yurts and tents of modern industrial products at the same time, and they also want to have a product that can satisfy the convenience of travel while maintaining the elements and spirit of the national traditional yurts.
One of the most important symbols of the nomadic yurt is its zenith, which represents the starry sky and reverence for nature. At the top of the tent we also specifically restored this element. In terms of structure, we use an inflatable air column as a support structure and use an electric air pump to inflate. The tent is very easy to transport and use. After storage, it can be easily put into the trunk of the car with a handbag. There is no need for multiple people to operate together during construction, and inflation after deployment can be realized within a few minutes, which is very fast compared with the tedious construction steps of more than a dozen people in traditional yurts for tens of minutes. It can quickly and easily solve the problem of family rest for short trips in the suburbs of the city.
In terms of material, transparent TPU, grid cloth and Oxford cloth are used to form multi-layer doors and windows, and reflective strips are added to the tarpaulin to blend nomadic wilderness wind with future scientific and technological sense. The color of the tent is chosen from the rough natural scenery of the nomadic people, and the earth color system is adopted to spread the Kyrgyz culture while also matching the nomadic spirit with the camping culture of the current Chinese society.
The audience of tent products is young people who love camping. We have created a brand concept of "made in Kyrgyzstan" based on nomadic culture. This tent is one of the product system. The brand presents the traditional elements of Kyrgyzstan in a modern and young way. Through the power of design, it has injected a new mode into the popular camping movement in China.
