These treehouses aim to provide a unique rental experience to a rustic and remote region of Monteagle, Tennessee. The small footprint, creative use of space, and modern design combine to create a distinctive lens through which to view the beautiful scenery of Monteagle.

Vertical black metal cladding wraps the exterior, a mix of modern and rural industrial skin. Upon arrival to the treehouses, the entry is solid but for a small lite of glass in the front door. The dark metal skin breaks to reveal a more textured and tactile copper panel inset with the entry door.

The materiality shifts inside the cabins back to the warmth of natural wood paneling throughout. At the far end of the treehouse, an expansive window off the rear of the cabin allows scenic views. A very modest 12’x18’ floor plan takes advantage of modular furniture to activate the living room for dining, lounging, or working in the wilderness. A lofted sleeping nook sits above the open living space.
