[...] Tree houses are buildings constructed among the branches or next to the trunk of one or more mature trees, and are raised above the ground. Tree houses can be built for recreation or permanent habitation. Generally, the term “tree fort” is used only for recreational structures and not permanent homes. In this post you can see the 8 of the most amazing tree houses ever built. The 4TreeHouse was designed by Lukasz Kos masters student at the University of Toronto’s School of Architecture & Design. Posing as a Japanese lantern on stilts, Kos’ creation floats within the fir trees on Lake Muskoka, Ontario, an elegant slatted structure that scales the trees and lets light radiate down it’s core. The project was an exercise in minimizing impact to the trees, site, and nature itself. A swing was suspended from the four trees, forming the structural foundation for the tree house. The result is a delicate balance between the slat wall enclosure and the swaying trees. The tall, tube-like structure allows for visitors to ascend up along with the trees. Lukasz Kos is a cofounder of Testroom, a Toronto-based architecture and design firm. – Via – Inhabitat [...]

I saw this house in a magazine about a year ago. It’s actually suspended from the trees with big cables, and swings freely with the trees. It has a few anchors above and to the sides to keep it suspended and under control. It doesn’t stand on stilts, rather it hangs from fellow trees.

[...] Incredibile casa sull’albero Inserito 26 Novembre, 2007 di Marco Di solito quando sento parlare di casa sull’albero mi vengono in mente le immagini delle casette costruite per i bambini negli USA. Qua, invece, ci troviamo di fronte ad una vera e propria abitazione. La casa, che assomiglia molto ad una lanterna giapponese, si trova su lago Muskoka nell’ Ontario ed è opera dell’architetto Lukasz Kos. Altre info e foto qui. [...]
