Garvan Woodland Gardens Tree House by modus studio


This ambitious project is part of the Garvan Woodland Gardens's plan to bring children back into the woods.  A welcoming playground and learning center elevated with the trees, the mystery of the form and foundation of the tree house were a main focus during the design process.  The end result is nothing short of a gorgeous and magical display of one of Earth's greatest natural resources.  The Gardens held a soft opening on June 30, honoring the new structure and welcoming its first true test as several young visitors eagerly explored the new structure.
