A treehouse was every child's dream. But many people did not let their childhood dreams take away with adulthood. We are no strangers to the concept of tree houses even in Slovenia (Bled, Luče), and in Atama, Japan, Takashi Kobayashi, in cooperation with Hiroshi Nakamura from NAP Architects office, "raised" the largest structure of its kind in the land of the rising sun in the crown of a 300-year-old camphor tree. called Kusukusu.
Kusukusu it is tree house, which gathered branches for its "foundation". A 300-year-old East Asian camphor tree. The residence is not only an architectural achievement (the authors are Takashi Kobayashiand and Hiroshi Nakamura), but also aesthetic. Unlike other houses of this type, this is about a free-standing iron structure that does not touch the tree at all, that it can grow peacefully further than it imagined. Thus, not only the architects are satisfied, but also botanists.

The Kusukusu tree house was completed in March 2014, and according to the new also welcomes guests, which, in addition to visiting the multi-storey structure, coffee and picnic area, other activities are available to them, such as, for example "zip line" descent between the surrounding canopies. Japanese architect Takashi Kobayashi is not new to this type of business, i.e. designing treehouses, but they say that Kusukusu is his great work. This one is especially romantic at night in the light of lanterns, almost as it is a romantic idea about tree houses.
