DESCRIPTION |

|
| The Concept |
|
|
|
 The inspiration for Treehotel is taken from the movie “The Tree Lover” by Jonas Selberg Augustsén. A tale of three men from the city who rediscover their roots by building a tree house together. “The Tree Lover” is a philosophical story about the tree’s importance to our people, both historically and culturally.
The idea behind Treehotel is to offer a high-standard accommodation in a harmonious setting where daily stress quickly fades away and guests can enjoy the peace and purity of unspoiled nature.
Together with some of Scandinavia’s leading architects, five uniquely designed treerooms were created in Harads, approximately fifty kilometres outside the city of Luleå. The treerooms are located 4-6 meter above ground, all with spectacular views of the Lule river.
A very important part of the concept is to make a minimal ecological footprint. Therefore, the hotel is built around the ecological values in which substantial resources have been devoted to finding sustainable construction and energy solutions. |

 While completing with The Bird’s nest, which harmonizes with its surroundings, the idea of creating an environment that was completely “out of place” was born. And what could be more out of place in the forest than a UFO?
The room is cast in durable composite materials. All to create the most lightweight, yet strong and durable design possible. The interior gives the room a modern and comfortable feel. The UFO is built for four people: two adults and two children, with separate bedroom, bathroom and lounge. 30 m2 is all you need for a comfortable escape to your childhood dream. |
