You dont need to leave the city to live among the trees.
The new urban treehouse byBaumraumbrings the peaceful lifestyle of a treehouse to a city with 3.5 million neighbors.
Baumraums Urban Treehouse was a design concept that continues the companys efforts of sustainable, raised-treehouse living.
Its a figurative treehouse, in that it is supported by steel instead of building into an existing tree.
Beyond its standard 7,000 square foot lot, the city bustles around it.
Within its tree-lined quarters, the home is in a peaceful world of its own.
The pair of tree houses are entered from a steel staircase that climbs the one story elevation.
The living section itself is a rectangle measuring a little less than 400 square feet.
Urban tree houses like these can have a functional value in urban locations beyond Berlin.
Coastal cities that are prone to flooding could embrace designs like these.
