Hello friends. I am going to share some information about tree house. The idea behind writing this blog is, I love cartoons and so many cartoon characters have their own tree houses out side there home. Tree houses are not as popular in India as compared to America and Europe. Tree house is eco-friendly in nature. It can not be a substitute of normal brick & steel building because of its less durability. Tree house can be used as kids house, meditation rooms etc. so something about tree house:

Tree houses, or tree forts, are buildings constructed among the branches, around or next to the trunk of one or more mature trees, and are raised above the ground. Tree houses can be used for recreation, work space, habitation or as temporary retreats.

Eco Friendly:

Tree houses are an option for building eco-friendly facilities in remote forest areas, because they do not require a clearing of a certain area of forest. The wildlife, climate and illumination on ground level in areas of dense close-canopy forest is not well suited for human habitation. In some parts of the tropics, ordinary houses are built in trees or elevated on stilts to keep the living quarters above hazards at ground level, and to keep the occupants and any stored food out of reach of scavenging animals.

Materials

Tree houses can be built with a wide range of materials. Wood is commonly used for structural parts and cladding due to its strength, light weight and low cost. Steel is used for brackets, cables and bolts, including specialized tree bolts capable of supporting up to 6000 pounds (2700 kg).
