Celebration of First Spring and the Tree Hotel in Sweden


The mirror cube with glasses tinted with an ultraviolet,  which are visible for birds only.

Ash Wednesday and the antique tradition of burning Winter made me think of a place where to celebrate the coming of Spring. Once again I turned to the North with its wildest nature and room for cabin's dreams.  Five shelters up in the trees, hide-out four to six meters above the ground... A minimal eco-footprint project by groundbreaking Scandinavian architects. Britta and Kent Lindvall made their dream come true in one of the most beautiful parts of Northern  Sweden, surrounded by natural forest with spectacular views of the Lulea River. More about it by Tham&Videgardarkitekter and Tree hotel.
