Lessons from Spherical Tree House Design
- Spherical Forms Distribute Loads Evenly: Round structures transfer weight efficiently to suspension points without concentrated stress
- Cedar Strip Construction Creates Weather Resistance: Traditional boat-building techniques produce waterproof curved shells
- Compact Shapes Minimize Suspension Requirements: Spheres provide maximum volume per surface area, reducing weight relative to interior space
- Portable Structures Enable Forest Placement: Units that transport by pickup can reach remote locations without road access for heavy equipment
- Unique Accommodations Command Rental Premiums: Distinctive experiences attract guests willing to pay more than standard lodging rates

I had the privilege to visit and stay here a couple of years ago. I was lucky enough to book on short notice due to a cancellation. It was delightful, peaceful and unique. If you are ever on Vancouver Island and have a night or two to unwind, I highly recommend a visit to Free Spirit Spheres.
Just looking at it made me smile . . .
Now let’s install an automatic blind so it can “wink”!
Have seen this before — long trek to a bathroom I think – but great fun overall. :-}
I have also had the pleasure of spending a “rock-a-by-baby” night in the tree top . . . in “Melody” . . . if you are interested in viewing some shots from our visit, I invite you to visit this link for 8 more shots . . .

Only tree dwelling that I have seen which I think is unattractive…love the area it’s in though….:)
They look like big eyeballs staring out of the trees. Those dang Martians are back….
Althouth the shape is suggestive….I have my doubts about confort or functionality of space. It is an extreme example of Organic Architecture.
omg. I am turning green here.
What Rachel said about the basic design of a bubble being sturdy is certainly true. I’ve been looking into building a geodesic dome because it has a high built-in hurricane factor due to the lack of 90 degree corners. Hurricanes + low wind resistance = good plan. A bubble would be even stronger than a geodesic — no angles at all.
Now, I’m contemplating 2 or 3 of these mounted on a common deck [1 bedroom, 1 kitchen/bath, 1 multipurpose. If my calculations are correct, it would still be fewer than 300 sq ft.] And how cool would THAT be?
I wonder if that company would contemplate delivering 2 or 3 of these babies down to Florida?
