Treehouse - Between People and Nature
Humans have an intrinsic psychological need to connect with nature and the natural environment. Architecture is created when humans build in response to the environment around them, and continuous creation of architecture creates the built environment. The treehouse, which is created in response to the environment of trees, is built for the interaction with and/or appreciation of the natural environment. The experience of being in a treehouse brings one to a deeper and more personal connection with nature.
