23. UFO Treehouse
The Swedish Tree Hotel decided to go a totally different direction after building a Bird Nest tree house and built this UFO treehouse.
24. Lantern House
Roderick Romero is known for building treehouses for stars like Sting and Val Kilmer, but its his desire to live a more minimalist, ahimsa-focused life that first inspired him to create his treetop masterpieces. His Lantern House is situated among three eucalyptus trees in Santa Monica, Calif., and 99 percent of it was built with salvaged lumber including the stained glass, which he recovered from an old movie set. I cant imagine building in the Trees while knowing that the materials I use could be contributing to a clearcut somewhere else on the planet, Romero says.
25. Beach Rock Tree House
Kobayashi Takashi built this breathtaking treehouse in 2005 with the purpose of communicating with outer space. Perched in the treetops of Okinawa this plexiglass portal to the universe is a popular attraction at Japans rustic Beach Rock Resort.
26. Alnwick Garden Treehouse
This massive structure is located in the UKs Alnwick Garden and was completed in 2005. Due to the houses size, a network of wooden braces must support it, so its not a treehouse in the traditional sense of the word. However, it stretches high into the treetops and several trees grow right through the floor and up past the roof. The building is home to a restaurant that serves gourmet local food.
