BLACK TENT is a form of portable dwelling for the Tibetan people, an essential place to live in during the pilgrimage journey.Our design keeps the form and function of the black tent intact and adds new technologies such as solar power, insulation roller blinds, and most importantly, sufficient lighting supported by solar power. By extracting the prototype, it was made to look like a black tent, yet completely different from the traditional black tent. The pilgrimage is difficult, and we hope these facilities provide them with shelter and resting places at night, where different pilgrimage groups can meet, share ghee tea, and talk about their faith and heart’s desires under the sacred and warm light.
