The Quiet Treehousegoes far beyond a child's backyard fort.It's a modern, high-tech home designed to bring you closer to nature by living among the trees without all the loud racket of modern life.

The Quiet Treehouse was designed by Blue Forest, a company known for hundreds of eco-friendlytreehouses around the world. The firm envisioned"atranquil tree home … designed to evoke the mystery and magic of a natural woodland environment." With help from the quiet sound company Quiet Mark and John Lewis department stores, Blue Forest designed this home with quiet appliances, including a top-notch sound system to block out noise pollution.

"Its bold contemporary design can be installed independently of a host tree yet still provides the user with the feeling that they are high in the tree tops looking down on the world below," the designers explain.
