Modern Tree Houses

A new title for your shedworker's bookshelf, out later this month, Modern Tree Houses fom Tashchen, with words by Florian Siebeck, illustrations by Marie-Laure Cruschi, and plentiful illustrations about all sorts of tree houses. Here's the bumph from the publisher:

A forestful of lofty lodges beckons nature lovers and design enthusiasts alike. From children’s playhouses and luxury escapes to eco-friendly homes and urban hideouts, these elevated masterpieces—crafted by architects like Baumraum, Manuela Hardy, BIG, and Snøhetta—reimagine how nature and buildings can coexist harmoniously.

The book features 62 pretty elaborate examples of what it calls 'nature's penthouses' from around the world.

Meditation treehouse room

We've covered Baumraum before on Shedworking but this design, although a specifically meditation and relaxation space rather than a shedworking one, looks more garden office-like than the previous work we've seen on the site before.

Treehouses for adults

A nice piece by Tessa Williams in the Daily Telegraph looks at treehouses for adults. Namechecks for suppliers which will be familiar to Shedworking readers including Baumraum and Free Spirit Spheres.Henry Durham, of High Life Treehouses, is quoted as saying:

"Customers use them as offices, studios and even as an extra bedroom. We built one recently with a log burner and chimney. Fireproofing was a headache, but the effect is magical."

Well worth a browse and look out for a nice little gallery of photos.
