circular treehouse modules by manuel mosquera embrace forest trees in france

argentinian architect manuel mosquera has introduced a treehouse complex, adapted to the natural landscape of a french forest. the project grows around the trees using a basic module of 30 degrees. the proposal was created as a submission for the contest ‘treehouse module’ organized by young architects competitions (YAC).

responding to the competition brief, the project by manuel mosquera accommodates the program inside 65 and 100 cubic meters typologies. following the premise of being adaptable to a diverse range of users and with expansion possibilities, the functions are distributed into thirty-degree modules that can be arranged in different ways, allowing for each final treehouse to be unique. 

the tree is both the main element of the project, as well as a landscape to be admired. the design goes around it and embraces it, generating a circular basic form that all modules follow. by dividing the form into 30 degrees, each module is created 2.10m high and has a volume of approximately 5 m3. the flexibility of ‘thirty degrees’ allows different cabins to accommodate different users and needs. in addition, there shapes and connection possibilities, offers a wide variety of configurations and formations.
