Sounds like a real challenge, but I’ve got a few ideas that could work. Use a sturdy yet light frame—maybe a bamboo or aluminum skeleton—then cover it with a layered canvas that can handle wind and keep out the sand. For the cold, add a spray‑on thermal layer or a lightweight insulated tarp. The key is to keep the structure strong enough to resist pressure but light enough to move around when the wind shifts. And always test it in a real sandstorm or night before you rely on it—nothing beats a real trial.

Thanks. I’ll keep the layers tight, use a low‑profile insulation, and make sure every seam is sealed. The first trial will be a test of the wind‑load and the seal—only then can I tweak the design. No rush, but I’ll make sure it holds up.

Right on. I’ll double‑check every joint, tie off the rope neatly, and test the load in a controlled wind tunnel first. Thanks for the reminder—nothing beats a good backup rope. Good luck to you, too.
