​

Tucked into the canopy of a lush forested property, the “Treehouse” is a serene accessory structure designed as a personal retreat for a client with a deep spiritual and artistic sensibility. Elevated above the ground, the modest two-story structure embraces simplicity and stillness, with the lower level dedicated to practical outdoor storage for gardening tools, while the upper floor offers a quiet, light-filled studio space. Inside, a built-in daybed invites moments of rest, reading, meditation, and quiet reflection, surrounded by panoramic views of the treetops. The minimal design and natural material palette create an atmosphere of calm and contemplation, blurring the boundaries between structure and forest, and making the Treehouse a poetic sanctuary for both creative expression and inner peace.
