This design doesn't scar the landscape, and incorporating the tree is like an act of love for nature. It makes me dream about houses like this, hidden or decorative, in a landscape without roads. No asphalt spoiling the views or swallowing valuable space, just paths above and tunnels beneath. Architect makes viewers reflect 😊.

The lighting designer in me was working out the exterior and interior lighting during presentation. I thought I wanted to live in the Dune house, but this one gives it a run for the money. I can’t even imagine the number of hours lying in bed in the early hours pre-visualizing every detail of every feature of this home. Truly incredible.

A wonderful mockup, beautiful design. The real thing would need more consideration of how water flows around, and through, the structure. (Trees naturally collect moisture towards their trunk to bring water to the roots.... So a retaining wall around the tree would help retain that moisture from the rest of the house.) And the exterior staircases would need some type of watershed, to keep from flooding.

It's a beautiful project that will work in theory. The catch is the hundred-year-old tree. Its roots run mainly above the surface in a larger perimeter than its crown, although it also has a pivoting root system. It will collect up to 200 litres of water per day from the surface. For construction, most of its roots will be cut. In addition, its trunk will be exposed to heat from heating. I don't give a damn about her survival under these conditions. Trees have extraordinary abilities to adapt, but it takes time for them to do so. To make the project viable in the long term, a tree would have to be planted in a masonry tube a hundred years in advance. Or we’d have to dig it up and force it to put its roots in this tube to save time by placing it above a spring that will flow below the house to provide it with water. Zero constraints, it exists only in theory, but you will find solutions !

I would love to live here. I might pop a bit of a cobalt or another intense color onto the ceiling of the pantry. While I like the cohesiveness of the design and am in love with the use of light, I need a touch of whimsy, even and maybe especially in contemporary design, I need a moment when it feels less serious and structured, and a bit of humor and joy peaks through. Nice job on that custom couch, love the media room, very cozy and balanced. The kitchen, not sure how the central staircase would effect work flow, if the space and design allow a narrow workspace counter instead of railing, but then I have never cooked in a circular kitchen it might be an easy flow. I do have a Great Dane and I think kitchen zoomies would be a sight to see. But house with a tree at its heart, how beautiful to live with that as the center of your home.

This is a brilliant and inspired design. I grew up always wanting to live in a hobbit hole. However, after living in a dark, subterranean, basement apartment while at university, I came to reconsider that. This however, is beautiful and full of light. The one thing that had always bothered me about Bags End, though, is the tree above it. Eventually, the roots from the tree would have grown into the hobbit hole, even through stone, brick, or mortar. While that is not a factor with your design, as you have incorporated the tree into the design, how have you planned to deal with the growth of the tree in regards to the seal that surrounds it? Just wondering from a practical design standpoint. Even given the slow growth of the tree, if the seal were not replicable, it could cause the tree to grow over it (though that would take some time) and could eventually force the frame out of alignment. The other possibility is that it could girdle the tree, killing it. If the seal is replicable, then it could be expanded to compensate for the growth. I'm not certain but I believe that the last time I checked, on average a tree trunk grows in diameter at the rate of 0.15 inches a year. This of course would vary by the type of tree and the local climate, rain fall, etc. Also, a certain maximum is usually given. Sorry, but these are the kind of things that run through my head and keep me awake at night.

I get a great feeling of flow and movement in this building. As a client I would be wanting to incorporate a lot of art nouveau elements in all parts of the house and its surroundings. I would also be asking if there was a way to keep an opening around the trunk of the tree (yet retain the some of the glass skylights there.) And would probably want someway for a staircase to get to the top from the inside the house. I think I would also find myself wanting to terrace the mound in some places, probably with stone.
