As children, we embraced the treehouse as our own personal haven, away from the prying eyes of adults. As adults, we encourage our children to build their own treehouse (with our supervision), so they too can have their own safe space for naughtiness and adventure (also with our supervision). Despite our preexisting beliefs, however, treehouses aren’t just for kids. They can be structures of wonder and beauty, bathed in green, and offering an escape surrounded by nature. The most common example of these is the treehouse hotels, that offer luxury and comfort alongside breathtaking views. These leaf-laden abodes can be designed to house multiple people and even provide fine dining experiences. More often than not, though, these tree-based architectural marvels, inspired by our childhood sanctuaries, are just plain beautiful. Just see for yourself!
