Out on a Limb: Incredible Treehouses

This Carbondale, Colorado treehouse was the first that Steven A. Novy, AIA, of Green Line Architects (www.greenlinearchitects.com), ever designed. A collaboration with builder and furniture craftsman David Rasmussen, this fun and frivolous feat was commissioned by Branden Cohen and Deva Shantay of True Nature Healing Arts. Called Crystal River, it features stilt-like log supports, framing made from reclaimed or blown-down timbers, and white pine and cedar siding.
