Chestnut Tree house, private commission, 2014
My client wanted a tree house large enough for the family to sit and enjoy the view of the sea. The large chestnut tree at the top of the garden proved the perfect place.
I built a viewing platform around the tree using oak timber with larch floor planking. Underneath, the ceiling shows the oak structure but has been filled with a traditional cob. Under the planking I put a pond liner to make the area under the platform waterproof.
A small sleeping area was created in the corner with its own covered roof and coloured glass balls for windows which capture the setting sun.
Private commission, Sweden, 2014. Designed and built by Phil Game.
