The author of Treehouse Living reveals 30 unique treehouse structures, 25 of which are entirely new creations, all illustrated with beautiful watercolors and color photographs.
Reigning majestically amid the treetops, the treehouse is a bastion of freedom and security in harmony with nature. It is a construction based either on a single tree or several, or on stilts in the middle of trees. Different methods of treehouse construction differ substantially from other types of building, requiring a profound knowledge of the materials to be used. In terms of use and design this special architectural discipline is full of surprises. The projects assembled for this volume show the present extraordinary treehouse variety. While natural motifs like nests, cocoons or caves are frequently employed, references to UFOs as well as other futuristic styles influence design fantasy shall know no bounds.

Since the publication of Treehouses of the World, the community of treehouse builders has grown tremendously, and many more innovative treehouses have been built around the world. In New Treehouses of the World, world-renowned treehouse designer and builder Pete Nelson takes readers on an exciting, international tour of more than 35 new treehouses that reveal how treehouses are designed, constructed, and appreciated in a wide array of cultures and settings. Both beautifully photographed and thoughtfully written by Pete Nelson, New Treehouses of the World documents Nelson’s travels, discoveries, and epiphanies, and explores the ever-growing new frontier of arboreal architecture. The message that Nelson promotes is simple: As sustainable living issues stand poised to become the most important challenges facing the post-millenial age, the positive power and goodwill that a simple treehouse engenders is of greater importance than ever before.
