Original Abstract

The goal of this research is to evaluate and find new solution in the area of wooden constructions placed in the treetops, which are interesting mainly due to their independence and amazing view among the treetops, and enable the utilization of the land below the treehouse itself. Treehouses can be constructed as a detached object without having to interfere with the trunk, or anchored into the trunk using special anchoring elements, where compact root system of surrounding trees is essential for healthy grow of the tree. Wood is also a specific natural material, which offers a possibility to create architecturally interesting and modern construction. This article is focused on evaluation of anchoring suitability of these constructions in treetops, evaluation of using these houses for recreational purposes as well as permanent living, effect of climate conditions on suitably chosen wood type and construction of these objects.
