A full-color dream
book for everyone who imagines a wondrous playroom
high above their backyard. Tree houses have come of age. The image of a
few planks nailed into the branches of a tree has changed into a new
generation of specially designed and built structures, suitable as a
playhouse, a study, or even a guestroom.
Totally inhabitable
and filled
with designer furniture, plumbing, and electronic wizardry, the twenty
tree houses featured in this book are to be admired, dreamed about, and
even built.
|
Featuring
spectacular photography of exteriors set up among the trees,
and interior shots that offer design ideas for living the
“high” life, The Treehouse
Book offers a fairy tale
castle, a thatched cottage, a complete hotel, and much more.
Each
project was designed using computer technology and built using
sustainable materials to create structures that only seem like fantasy.
|
Each is cleverly
fitted to the chosen trees, avoiding long-term damage
to these remarkable structures.
With a section on plans and building techniques to help the competent
reader design and build a fabulous tree house for him or herself, The
Treehouse Book will inspire everyone to dream about what
life would be
like leaving all cares and worries behind and below. 176 color
illustrations..
