Triple house on Endor trees

Triple house on Endor trees

As part of the international meeting of EASA architecture students, where almost 500 young people from 48 countries participated, a Tree House was built on Loka by the Krka river, which was designed and mostly built by young Spanish architects themselves.

It is a project of 3 tree houses connected by a common staircase. Each house has a floor area of ​​approximately 20 m2 and rests on a single tree and pillars supported by footings. The entire structure is made of wood connected with steel elements.

The special feature of the building is its attachment to the trees, which is solved using the so-called Garnier screws, which are screwed into the tree trunk itself. This ensured that the trees remain as intact as possible. The façade is made of external shadings, which are painted on the upper side, providing an effect in the style of the Mexican architect Luis Barragán.

I am very happy that we can now show the castle and other attractions to all our family guests and tell them something along the way. Or maybe we should just let them listen to the guides on the phone, who are always on duty. In this way, even us locals were able to learn many new things about our places. Since we are not trained guides and not so good at speaking, I like to play the audio guides and surprise my guests.

I thought that Bled is unique with its castle on a rock and a water motif below it. I must admit that the reflection of your castle in the Krka river is also beautiful and that the scenery of Žužemberk from the river banks is very picturesque. However, I also have to admit that it is much calmer and less noisy there in the summer than here in Bled in the high season. All the more reason for me to run away from my place to yours more often.
