There is just something quite fascinating about having a tree house. It brings back a sense of nature and sense of childhood adventure.
Tree houses do have their own practical advantage. In some places across the world people have elevated their houses from the ground to protect themselves from scavenging animals or even other tribes attacking them. In forest areas where there is dense foliage it can be better to build within a tree rather than make a clearing.
In recent years tree houses have been extremely fashionable and this has been boosted by a move towards a more sustainable existence. As people get more disposable income and building technologies improve we are starting to see some truly fantastic structures.
Please see below a selection of unique tree houses from across the world:
