    I see in many yurts that are built up to stricter codes, they have a through the wall vent in the bathrooms that are built inside the yurt. That with perhaps a small fan might alleviate that issue.

    These are not yurts. They are geodesic domes. Completely different. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesic_dome

    Pacific Yurts sell a "through the wall" kit for wood stoves, I am sure you could use it for this too. I would contact them and ask what other solutions they have.

    Hmm, without seeing the layers, I am not sure.. Perhaps a mesh put in between them, kind of like what you see them do with siding (example (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3549347/)). ...

    That's hard to say. It really depends on what the electrician will be doing. Sounds like they will be doing everything from scratch, from the pole so on a back of a napkin, it doesn't sound all that...

    I would like to add that half the fun of living in a yurt is coming up with solutions for some of the adversities you will face.

    I feel like I have to duck into yurts with short walls. I am 6'0. To me, the taller walls just feel more natural whereas the short walled yurts feel more hobbit'ish..

    This is not a Pacific Yurt as far as I can tell. The center ring does not look familiar at all. Be cautious. If you can't find the manufacturer, then if something goes wrong with it, you will have...

    I am going to tag a bunch of yurt companies here. Many monitor tagging and get notified when they are tagged in a post. Perhaps some will respond to you privately.
