1. At the entrance, a two-storey high opening houses a glass treehouse and an 8 meter high everygreen Autumn Maple. This creates extraordinary scenes of forest living in contrast with the bustling adjacent main road just a few steps away. Adjacent to the treehouse, the building entrance is setback diagonally to frame the treehouse. The reception is designed like a cabin, with timber ceiling and fireplace to greet the incoming guests. 3623 px 5434 px 10 MB A3 print |
