Just looking at the different pictures of adult tree houses makes one feel relaxed and carefree. These are popping up all over the world. From little shacks along the river made up of driftwood, to grand hotels, the views will take your breath away.
As folks start with families and work, they forget what it felt like to be a child, they can't seem to remember what the word fun is anymore. They all need time away from their busy lives to appreciate what nature has given them. Waking up to birds singing around you, instead of cars hooting and sirens blaring can seem like a dream.
Each is built with a modern kitchen that has running water and even a private bathroom. Some are built with skylights with a lacework of leaves and stars peeking in at you. Opening a window and your closest neighbour will be a bird sitting on a branch looking back at you.
The choice of style and size depends on the size of the trees used. Bigger buildings will require more than one, up to as many as three or four. Small shacks made from driftwood to hotels and cathedrals with a vast array of designs are breathtaking. These can be fitted out with stoves, burning wood, handmade stained glass windows and solar powered lightening.
Not all are attached to the trunk, there are some that are mobile and are hung from trees, buildings and rock faces. Usually only four anchor points are needed to support the weight. These have to be waterproof and impact-resistant.
People are even starting to think ahead. Why not grow one instead of building. A combination of using scaffolding and other materials can be used to help direct the growth over a period of years. Vines and roots will begin to make a flexible framework. The windows can be made out of a flexible soy membrane that will shift as this begins to grow.
If you are lucky enough to be able to make one yourself, remember that it must be safe and strong. The tree must be able to continue to grow and only those that are mature must be used. Depending on what your budget is, more than one tree can be utilised. Always look around for the different techniques and tutorials that are available so as to avoid costly mistakes.
One company in particular has been doing this since 1997. Only extremely experienced builders and carpenters are hired. They are able to build either the rustic or modern look, depending on what you prefer. They can either be made with modern angles and clean lines to those that blend into the area around them. Depending on the size you fancy and the budget that you have, small little romantic or big family rooms sizes are offered.
Looking at the different pictures one can't help but dream. Why not make it a reality and either build one or take the family away for the week- end and book into a hotel, made from adult tree houses. You will soon start to relax and enjoy nature as it was intended.
