About Us

We cobbled together our first yurt in 2019. 150+ yurts later, our yurts are not cobbled any more. They are crafted.
With each yurt, we have improved our processes, our craft and our product. And today we compete with the world’s best — our yurts are now sought after in the US, UK, Canada and Australia.
We want to grow bigger, like everyone does! But we also want to grow better. And that happens when The Out Factory’s aspirations are aligned with our customers’ aspirations.
Our first yurts were getaways for the outdoorsy — today our yurts are homes, resorts, spas, libraries, gyms, offices, golf cabins.… What you dream, is what we craft. With each yurt, The Out Factory gets better.

Us

This is all of us. And as Ray Kroc famously said, none of us is as good as all of us. There’s Kishan in there, there’s Chandru, there’s Ravi, carpenters, engineers, architects, and so on.

Each of us brings a different skill to the table. As also brings a duffel bag of opinions, angles and slants. But we guess that is what completes The Out Factory.

What unites us, is a desire to make our yurts better and an infinite capacity to be amused (the remote controlled automated dome kept us entertained for days on end).

Our beliefs

• That each of us at The Out Factory should love to come in to work.
• That each of our customers should be happy in our yurts.
• That each thing we do subscribes to the ancient Indian credo,
parasparopagraho jīvānām — all life is bound together by mutual support and interdependence.
• That each of us should try to leave our little corner of the planet better than how we found it.
• That each of us should always think the new, regardless of how silly it sounds.

Something good is happening.

People are un-thinking the old. They are going beyond concrete and walls. Places once called remote are now called destinations. You were once defined by your neighbours, now you are are defined by the lack of them.

Home was once about materials, it is now about feeling. Architecture once dominated space, now it integrates. People want to build into nature, not on it. No one wants a buzz, everyone wants silence. Ibiza is still popular. But so is the middle of nowhere. There are no tourists any more, only travellers. The opulence travellers now seek is not manmade, but nature-made. Hospitality was once about excess, now it is about restraint. Hospitality is not selling beds any more, but selling stories.

People want an escape. From concrete, from faces, from screens. People want to see, hear, think, feel the new.

Around the world, people are un-thinking the old. And at The Out Factory, we are aligning our business aspirations to this new world’s new un-think. Yes, a lot of good is happening.
