The traditional tree house design lifts people off the ground to live like squirrels. 6a Architects bring the tree house down to earth by building a house around the trees. The aerial views of the house show that the house has been built around the trees in order to keep from disturbing them.
6a Architects built this house for a woman who found herself wheelchair bound, so having a house built off the ground was out of the question. The rustic appearance of the house provides the perfect nearby escape to the city life. With trees being right up close to the building, you would never know that you are in the city. When all the plants have grown up around the house, it will make for an exotic house that feels as if it were built by Mother Nature.
