New with lots of questions!

[gurt_from_the_yurt]

we are in the process of buying some dirt and want to put a yurt on it to use as a weekend/vacation abode while we are building a house on the same property. The yurt will remain after the house is finished as a guest house. Of course, cost is a consideration. So...i'm hoping you guys can

We are building in Central Maine which can get pretty frosty so heat will be a big issue. Is there something we can lay between the platform and t&g flooring to give it a bit of extra

insulation

underneath?

I also thought about putting extra

insulation

inside by hanging mylar sheets from clips from the tension wire on the top of the lattice and then hanging a sheet of canvas over the mylar to sort of trap the heat in/cold out...would that work?

we're still in the very beginning of planning so any advice is superwelcome. I'm gonna have tons more questions. I'm so glad i found y'all!
