As kids, tree houses were the best places to hide and enjoy the much wanted privacy. As adults too, we all like to spend some time in the astonishing and homely tree houses. The concept of a tree house may vary for each one of us but the basics remain the same – being close to nature and feeling rejuvenated.
Be it a vacation with your better half, a play time with your close friends or just the need to have some ‘me time’, a tree house will always be the best place.

Floating amidst the fir trees on Lake Muskoka, Ontario, 4TreeHouse is the picturesque imitation of a Japanese lantern hanging on the stilts. It was designed by a Masters student at the University of Toronto’s School of Architecture and Design. As one of the objectives of this project was to let minimum impact on the trees around, 4TreeHouse is suspended from the four stretchable cables suspended from four nearby trees. There are three levels in this tall and delicate structure with varying transparency. The best part of this marvellous tree house is the feel of escapism it offers. Being surrounded by nature while having a private and exciting place for yourself, makes it a great expenditure.
A restaurant with 120 seats, two classrooms, two private dining rooms and a retail shop. Yes, all this in one tree house.

This incredible tree house was designed for a coffee brand – Nescafe – commercial which was telecasted on Japanese television. The advertising agency in Tokyo hired Takashi Kobayashi, a renowned and leading tree house creator in Japan. He built a $38,000 tree house resembling a bird’s nest in oval shape. It is 12 feet in height and 9 feet in diameter. A delicate round stair case is used for reaching the tree house located on a ground owned by the town of the Kamishihoro. After shooting the advertisement Nestle, the makers of Nescafe, gifted it to the people of Hollaido.
