Shingled sphere treehouses perched in the forest make for a magical escape

We’re enamored with these lovely spherical treehouse cabins, from Antony Gibbon. Set in a wintry forest, the elevated spheres are part of a collection called Burl Treehouse, and feel like a magical escape, blending playfulness with a reverence for the natural environment.

Inside, the wood-clad interior and oversized circular windows lend a sense of wonder to the overall feeling of coziness.

The pod-like cabins are connected via a minimalist suspension bridge, reminding us of the charming tree village from Return of the Jedi’s forest moon of Endor.

Available in a range of configurations, and wood choices. See more on the Antony Gibbon Designs website.

“Available in a range of different sizes and layout, this tiny pod is supported by structural posts as well as suspension cables connecting to the surrounding trees for extra support.

A minimalistic suspension bridge leads you to the entrance door with a main circular window as the central feature to the pod. The interior is light Cedar or Ash with an exterior cladding of charred wood shingles.

The Living space of a single pod consists of a double bed with built in storage and a compact toilet and shower room. “
