Who out there had a tree house as a child? Raise your hands! I know I sure did. My dad built one for me that I am sure is still standing today, some 20 years later. It was amazing: built- in ladder, trap door, screened- in windows all the way around, vaulted ceiling, the list goes on. It was just what a boy needed to feel like the master of his domain. My friends and I even had camp-outs in it during the summer (although I remember running inside in the middle of the night more than once, scared someone was going to get me!). I Just read this article on treehugger.com about tree houses and it brought back a flood of memories and desires to live like the Swiss Family Robinson for the rest of my life. Treehugger has a slideshow titled 8 Tree Houses Fit for Treehuggers that you should check out. These are amazing homes and getaways that, I’m sure, would do us all some good!
Archetype 3D did a 3D model for the Children’s Botanical Garden in Kansas recently, designed by EDAW, Inc. (www.edaw.com). It was such a fun project that really turned out well! It’s great to know that designers are still staying in touch with the child inside and are designing around the beautiful environment we live in! – Howard Williams, Director Sales/Marketing
Check out some pictures of our model:
