H13 Plywood

  • Vinay Gupta invented the basic shape in 2003. The H13 was designed by [Davis] and [Toymaker] (design published in November 2010). The H13 adds one panel to the “classic” H12 hexayurt, but that one extra sheet of plywood gets an 8′ roof line and 2-3 times the walkable space inside the hexayurt.
  • The H13 has been built with polyiso panels and there's even a design to make it folding.
  • This page describes the specificities for a H13 built with wood.

Naming the pieces

  • A "panel" cut through the diagonal gives us 2 "triangles". Please refer to this chart to name the "panels" and "triangles".
  • The "wall" has 6 "wall sides".
  • The "roof" has 2 "classic roof sides", 2 "big roof sides", and 2 "horizontal-vertical roof sides".
