房子坐在一棵大的波胡图卡瓦树下，与一系列由外部桥梁和楼梯连接的悬空的内外空间进行谈判。这所房子的主人必须走出去，才能在房间流通。由于很难进入，并且希望尽量减少浪费，该设计是基于工厂的板材大小，可以通过手工携带，并直接固定到位，而不需要切割。胶水层压板在框架中被广泛使用，再一次手工运输，并在现场拼合在一起。

Sitting under a large pohutukawa tree the house negotiates the site with a series of suspended internal and external spaces connected by external bridges and stairs. The owners of this home have to step outside in order to circulate from room to room. Due to difficult access and the wish to minimize waste, the design was based around factory sheet sizes which could be carried by hand and directly fixed in place without the need for cutting. Glue laminated timber was used extensively in the framing, once again carried in by hand and pieced together on site.

一座拉桥可以让房子脱离地面，让住户有一种隐私感，感觉就像在树上的平台上一样。

A draw bridge allows the house to disengage itself from the ground,  giving the occupants a sense of  privacy and the feeling of being on a platform up in the trees.
