Designed to Last
Building with living trees means thinking well beyond the day construction ends. Using multiple trees and varying species gives us more options if a supporting tree experiences stress or declining health. We consider that long-term adaptability during design, drawing on rigging and structural engineering to make future adjustments possible. With thoughtful planning and ongoing care, these spaces can be enjoyed for generations.
