Abstract

Being elevated from the ground and among the branches is the key to the unique atmosphere of tree-houses. Instead of sticking to the structure of a tree, we suggest to revolve around it and consider it as the pivotal axis of our design. Different spaces are organized in multiple slices and levels and the arc shape of the modules creates the ability to maneuver in the woods with different combinations and generate small elevated neighborhoods through the natural context. The façade system consists of two separate layers of shader panels and glass window panels which can slide on the conic surfaces of the modules, therefore, provide the ability to adjust the light, privacy, and openness at every space independently.
