The Banyan Drive Tree House Marries Tree Efficiency With Modern Style

The Banyan Drive tree house is a towering retreat unlike any other you've seen before.

Normally, the reigning consensus when it comes to treetop housing is that you have to sacrifice modern sensibilities for the cool factor of being in a tree. However, Rockefeller Partner Architects went above and beyond with the Banyan Drive tree house by designing it based on the owner's art collection. Best of all, the entire project was a gift from the owner to his wife -- just like the Taj Mahal. That's romance!
