The KABAN by Renaud Morel is proof that childhood dreams don't have to die when you grow up. The treetop structure is a classy, naturalistic and aesthetically attractive place designed for meetings and special events that is almost straight out of the Swiss Family Robinson.
The whole building is 525 square feet, but it seems surprisingly spacious considering it is, after all, a house in a tree. Those of us who don't have one of these super-cool retreats for our own will have to settle for these pictures of the KABAN by Renaud Morel.
