Woodsman’s Treehouse in Dorset
Crafty Camping & Woodland Workshop
Woodsman’s Treehouse is a two-person residential retreat at Crafty Camping & Woodland Workshop, a rural campus offering green woodworking courses and accommodation in a woodland.
It was self-built by a team of skilled furniture makers and green wood craftsmen.
The playful construction, arranged around an aged oak, is in harmony with its surroundings.
The modest elevated house is arranged around a cylindrical living space concealed within an octagonal drum externally clad in alternating stripes of Douglas fir and cedar which are weathering to form a chevron pattern.
The secondary rooms, plugged around its perimeter, are clad in different timber species and cuts.
The treehouse is approached across a sloping site via a boardwalk and entered through a burnt oak entrance door.
