In need of some extra space, then the Suburban Tipi is for you. Unlike tipis of yore, this one uses pvc siding, polypropylene sheeting, engineered timber, polycarbonate supports and erected dimensions being 16 feet tall, 18 feet in diameter. Inspired by yuris, tipis, and igloos, designer John Paananen wanted to see if living in such an iconic spire would work in today’s modern world. The “house” temporarily existed at Cranbrook Academy in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan for 7 months.
