For centuries, the North American Indian made his home on his continent in a simple dwelling defined by nature and dictated by the elements. The tipi or "dwelling place" was at once a dwelling place for man and an artistic statement of form and function.
Like its predecessors, today's tipi is at home with nature, meeting the elements with a simple form that has survived the test of time.
Imagine a circular room, 16 feet across with a high ceiling;
a room, filled with lush, diffused light. Now imagine this room functions as your sole living space for cooking, sleeping and living. Total simplicity.
The natural, graceful lines lend a peaceful aura to the tall, spacious interior. Living in a tipi is an exercise in simplicity.
Small candle lanterns provide subdued light for cooking, reading, discusions and playing games.
