npm config set prefix /home/kuno/pkg

Then global installs will put packages in
/home/kuno/pkg/lib/node_modules.  Bins will go in /home/kuno/pkg/bin.
Man pages will go in /home/kuno/pkg/share/man.

If you just want to install locally in that folder, then simply
cd /home/kuno/pkg and then `npm install whatever` and it'll be
installed in that folder.
