Ever wanted to live like Peter Pan? Well, thanks to German architecture firm, baumraum, people all over the world are.

baumraum combines the creative and constructive expertise of an architect with the long-standing experience of a landscape architect, a tree expert, and established, reputable craftsmen. They design treehouses to suit individual wishes. The clients decide on the size, shape, height of the house and its fittings and furnishings.

The firm’s major objective, it should be noted, is to handle the trees and their surroundings with the utmost care, ensuring their protection and preservation.

Eat your heart out, Swiss Family Robinson.
