Suspended Tent Structures

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Tentsile Provides Above Ground Shelter for Campers

— March 18, 2012 — Art & Design
Promoted as the worlds most versatile tent, the Tentsile removes the hassle of poles and pins and allows campers to enjoy safe, sheltered sleep from the comfort of the tree line. The tent is “held in tension by elongates which collect at each of the three high level anchor points, and at the base to form internal spaces,” according to Uncrate, creating a triangle-shaped, suspended hammock.

The polyester fabric of the Tentsile tent is fire retardant and water resistant, ensuring that you and your friends or family are safe from both land-dwelling threats and environmental hazards.

Available in a variety of sizes accommodating anywhere from one to eight people, the Tentsile tent is a new and impressive addition to the growing line of hammock-meets-tent camping gear.
Trend Themes
1. Suspended Shelter - Opportunity for developing more versatile and space-savvy suspended shelter structures for outdoor adventurers.
2. Pole-less Camping - Innovation opportunities abound in developing more camping equipment that eliminates the need for cumbersome poles and pins.
3. Tree-based Housing - Developing more housing solutions that leverage the structure of trees could be a transformative innovation in the architecture and housing industry.
Industry Implications
1. Outdoor Equipment - The outdoor equipment industry could innovate further with the creation of more innovative camping structures and gear.
2. Textile Manufacturing - Developing more durable and eco-friendly textiles for suspended shelter structures and outdoor gears could be a disruptive innovation within the textile industry.
3. Architecture and Housing - The development of innovative and sustainable tree-based housing solutions has the potential to transform the future of architecture and housing industry.
