Trees are stately, graceful and beautiful creatures. Healthy forests are finely tuned communities, filled with many individuals working together, in their own way, as part of a balanced whole.
How can the tree or the forest ecosystem help us to design the right treehouse? After all, the tree and the forest have to live with our creation just as much as any human resident of the treehouse. When the design of the treehouse is inspired by its host tree and forest ecosystem, it really sings.
