The design of this beautiful house in the trees was inspired by the
Fibonacci Spiral. That's the spiral found in plants and animals like the
sunflower and the snail's shell. The building, by Blue Forest, is
finished
from sustainably managed forest timbers using laminated ribs for the
framing which is clad inside and out with larch boards. Larch has
comparable characteristics as oak but is less cost. This small house is
just 270 Sq.ft with a tiny kitchen and space for
a bed and chairs. Once the frame of the house was made off-site it took
a little team of builders about 8 weeks to construct. You can say it’s a
bit of a kid's paradise with 130 ft of rope bridges and a 75 ft slide.
What an awe-inspiring aspect of nature!
This lovely house is a marvel of nature and human intelligence. In the
Fibonacci sequence, as you may divide a number into its successor, the
further along you go the closer you get to the value of "Phi" - The
Golden Ratio (value 1.618033), i.e 13 divided
into 21 = 1.61538; 144 divided into 233 = 1.61805. The dimensions of
our Meditation \ Yoga Hut at Lee Road are based approximately! on the
value of Phi.
