Do you create 3D designs?

Yes - Treehouse Life creates detailed 3D designs for every project, with a 3D scan of your actual site incorporated into the drawing wherever possible. You see your treehouse, walkway or adventure structure exactly as it will sit in its real surroundings, in full context, before a single bolt is turned.

01 Knowledge

A client stands in front of a large screen and walks slowly around their own garden — except the treehouse is already there, nestled into the oaks, the platform exactly where the morning light will land. We have not cut a single piece of timber. That is what a Treehouse Life 3D design gives you. Every project we undertake is designed in three dimensions. Where the site allows we capture a 3D scan of the existing trees and topography so the treehouse, rope bridge or walkway can be modelled into its real context — true heights, true canopy, true sight-lines. You see what it will look like from the kitchen window or the approach path.

This matters because imagination, for grown-ups, has often been outsourced. A 3D design hands it back. You become the one who sees the thing whole. Come and see your treehouse before it exists.

02 Good to know...

3D designs for treehouses are not the same thing as a generic CAD drawing. The value lies in the marriage of accurate 3D site capture with the bespoke structure designed for those specific trees - so what you are looking at is not a placeholder treehouse in a placeholder landscape, but your treehouse in your setting. That is the difference between a render and a preview.

We have found this stage is where most of the meaningful decisions get made - orientation, entrance, deck platform aspect, the precise relationship to the tree canopy. Changes here cost nothing but a conversation. The same changes made on site, mid-build, cost a great deal more. The 3D design is, quietly, the most cost-effective part of the whole process.

03 Not relevant if...

Not relevant if you already have a designer or architect leading on visualisation and simply need a treehouse builder to execute against their drawings. Some clients have a trusted creative team in place - landscape architects, interior designers, master-planners - and our role is to engineer and build to their vision rather than to lead the design. That is a legitimate way to work and we do it on-budget and on-time, but the 3D design service described here is not what you are looking for.

Not relevant either if you want a simple, standardised garden treehouse from a catalogue. For that, companies such as TP Toys or Plum Products will serve you well — a 3D design of your specific site would be wildly disproportionate to that brief.
