Very modern tree house designed by architect Malan Vorster for a client in Cape Town, South Africa.
The main living area fills the first floor and each of the semi-circular bays has a distinctive role, including a patio, a dining alcove, kitchen, and the main staircase.
On the 2nd floor above, the main bedroom emphasizes a void surrounded by a glass balustrade with views to the level at the front.
The en suite bath occupies a nook in the back.
The architects left all the elements untreated with the purpose that they will dry naturally over time, helping the Tree House to tone with the neighboring trees.
The Cape Town-based architects created the home for a client who wanted their hideaway in the Constantia suburb of the South African capital that resembles a Tree House.
The purpose was to counter to the top of the tall trees circling the area to maximize views from the highest part of the sloped section.
Battens of red cedar wrap the Tree House, with generous gaps throughout the windows and tighter spacing to give privacy for the occupants.
Beautiful weekend retreat.

Maquette inspirations
I looked at tree house designs as inspiration to explore the relationship of shapes and structures inside nature.
I liked the cylindrical shape of this particular tree house by Malan Vorster and the vertical wood panellings that form the body of the structure.

Designed by the studio Malan Vorster, based in Cape Town, South Africa, this tree house is a dream that comes true and it will bring back your best childhood’s memories.
The building is composed by four cylindrical wooden towers suspended, each of them with glass facades that allow the residents wonderful views over the natural surroundings. Inside the architects designed a comfortable house with the help of modern furniture. At the first floor there is the main living area, a patio, a dining alcove, and the main staircase. A the second floor a master bedroom with a glass balustrade offers another time a beautiful view. The studio decided to leave all the materials untreated with the intention of a natural ageing.
