Words from the designer

"The layout and design of the treehouse is based on pentagonal patterns. A concept, which is interesting as there is no possibility of creating an infinite addition of pentagons without having leftovers. These leftovers are essential in our concept: that create interesting light situations, linking the interior to the outside and integrating existing trees into the house (within the resulting courtyards). Like leaves that create space underneath a tree, light and shadow become core elements integral to the spatial quality of the treehouse."

"The house is organized in two levels and partially cantilevers over the water. The primary orientation is towards the lake, and the "snowy mountains" out back. The complex geometry stands in stark contrast to the simplicity in materials and detailing of the building. "
