Description of the project
Summary
In the easter part of Slovakia at water reservoir Domasa, which represents pure nature and the perfect opportunity to spend a summer holiday, we want to build an ecological treehouse. The treehouse would be built chiefly using wood and is supposed to provide each visitor a unique experience in the heart of nature, where water meets land.
Key objectives for sustainability
Once you enter the treehouse, its goal is to create a feeling that you are now living with the rules of nature. That means: no electricity, no heating nor water source.
Key objectives for aesthetics and quality
The treehouse is in the shape of an old boat at a height of around 5 meters. No contras colors or attention-seeking materials - built in nature with the natural resources.
Located in the quiet part of the forest and surrounded by no other buildings and roads, it provides the best opportunity to go, when you want to spend a weekend just relaxing and chilling.
Key objectives for inclusion
One of the few similarities with the casual hotels is our reservation system. The treehouse welcomes each guest. However, if the interest is high, we would define the maximum number of days to stay to provide an opportunity for everyone.
Each guest is expected to clean after himself/herself because that's how nature works.
Physical or other transformations
Innovative character
The goal of the project is to directly connect people and nature together and show them that no smartphones or internet connections are needed to survive. We want to remind people that nature had been here before us and can exist without us, but we can't. People should be aware of the essential role of nature in their lives. Once everyone realizes it, everyone will start to care more about it.
Learning transferred to other parties
Promoting should be the easiest part for us. The treehouse would be located on the land with direct access to the water reservoir within several meters. People could
Every guest would be expected to take back his/her own garbage. However, directly in the house, there would be different posters on how to be eco-friendly and produce the least amount of garbage. There wouldn't be any cleaner. That would be a guest's responsibility to put everything in the state as they found it.
