Evoking the feeling of being in a tree house is exactly what the beautiful Wilkinson Residence in Portland does. Located on a flag lot, the extraordinary house is brilliantly designed to perfectly blend with the natural landscape. A steep sloping grade provided the opportunity to bring the main level of the house into the tree canopy.
Catering to the desire of the client, Wilkinson Residence designed a dwelling that not only became part of the natural landscape but also addressed the flow of music. It has a natural wood ceiling that wonderfully floats on curved laminated wood beams, passing through a generous glass wall, which wraps around the main living room. The interior space of this amazing house flows seamlessly through to the exterior. Taking a walk through the house will help you see its complexities and its connection to the exterior.
Feel free to share it!

The house and facilities harm the natural landscape by replacing the natural landscape. The house also consumes far more materials needed by only one or two occupants. Frank LLoyd Wright made the same mistake and building trends suffer for that mistake.
I agree, the architect of this house only produce the beauty and not the preservation of the natural landscapes. But indeed it's beautiful. Nice post!
Hi eric! i'm glad you like my site. i'm currently studying web optimization by my self and indeed i need to learn from the experts though. But i can't deny the fact that i'm low on budget so i'm doing this manually. Anyhow, very much appreciate your concern and i hope to see you here again :)
