架构师提供的文本描述。萨皮、佛兰芒森林和自然局、Hechtel-Eksel社区和邻近社区以独特的伙伴关系联合起来，鼓励公司、政治家和组织在日常活动中接受可持续性。有什么比建造树屋更好的方法吗？根据国际造纸公司Sappi的说法，该项目是在他们的传播机构近距离BBDO启动的，树屋将使他们的可持续性努力更加具体、更真实，并成为其他人效仿的真正灵感来源。

Text description provided by the architects. Sappi, The Flemish Forest and Nature Agency, the commune of Hechtel-Eksel and Proximity joined forces in a unique partnership to stimulate companies, politicians and organisations to embrace sustainability in their daily activities. What better way to do this than to build a treehouse? According to the international paper producer Sappi, which started the project with Proximity BBDO, their communications agency, a treehouse would make their sustainability efforts more tangible, more real, and a true source of inspiration for others to follow.

佛兰芒森林和自然局和赫克特尔-埃克塞尔公社，迅速出售了在他们的房屋上创建这个项目的想法，并热情地接受了这一概念。

The Flemish Forest and Nature Agency and the commune of Hechtel-Eksel, were quickly sold on the idea to create this project on their premises and enthusiastically embraced the concept.

所有这一切都有一个愿景：环境质量和社会责任，造福于人类、地球和繁荣。这座树屋有助于弥合经济和生态之间的差距。

All with one vision: environmental quality and social responsibility for the benefit of people, planet and prosperity. THE TREEHOUSE helps to bridge the gap between economy and ecology.

树屋不仅仅是树屋。这是一个小小的建筑奇迹，配备了最先进的生态设施，坐落在赫克特尔-埃克塞尔的森林里。

THE TREEHOUSE isn’t just any treehouse. It’s a small architectural wonder equipped with state-of-the-art eco facilities located in the forests of Hechtel-Eksel

树屋是举行决裂会议的理想场所，在那里，企业可以集思广益，讨论对公司的重要性、可持续性以及他们可以改进的方式，为地球建设一个更美好的未来。它是进行科学研究和相关报告的最佳地点。

THE TREEHOUSE is the ideal place to hold break-out sessions where businesses can brainstorm about the importance sustainability to their company and ways they can improve to build a better future for the planet. It is the perfect location for scientific research and relevant presentations.

树屋是怎样设计的？该设计的主要形象是一张纸，它是褶皱和封闭的内部和外部空间。树屋基于五个要素：两个不同层次的小木屋，连接的梯田，一个楼梯和一个连接的屋顶。

How is THE TREEHOUSE designed? The major image of the design is a sheet of paper that is pleated and encloses both interior and exterior spaces. THE TREEHOUSE is based on five elements: two cabins on different levels, connecting terraces, a staircase and a connecting roof.

下舱内设有咖啡厅、储藏室、卫生间和技术室。上面的房间是专门为会议和其他活动，适合这个精致的空间中的树木。长凳上覆盖着柔软的枕头环绕着空间，产生了一种舒适和放松的感觉，鼓励一个人呆得更久。

In the lower cabin is a coffee lounge, pantry, restroom and technology room. The upper room is dedicated to meetings and other events that are appropriate to this exquisite space among the trees. Benches covered with soft pillows surround the space resulting in a comfortable and laid-back feeling, encouraging one to stay longer.

小木屋和上面的露台坐落在19个角度的钢高跷上。每个钢高跷连接到地面下面的地基螺丝，对森林地板的影响最小。

The cabins and upper terraces rest on 19 angled steel stilts. Each steel stilt is connected to the ground below with foundation screws that have a minimal impact on the forest floor.

所有设备都使用附近博物馆现有的用品(绿色电力和净水)或自给自足(热泵)。最新的技术用于加热和冷却系统。位于地下空间的热泵机组，从空气中提取热量。暖气是通过管道输送的，这些管子是通过一根钢制的柱子输送到柜子里的。在将暖气转化为液体后，管子会将其输送到长凳下的加热装置。这种低温供暖系统的结果是一个良好的，舒适的气候和能源成本仍然很低。在夏季，该系统也可用于冷却。这个系统是二氧化碳中性的。平衡通风系统是完全基于需求的供应和抽象单元集成在长凳上。对通风和供暖系统进行持续监测。为了减少能源消耗，所有的灯都是LED。在厕所，日光和运动传感器集成在LED电枢中。

All equipments use the existing supplies (green electricity and water purification) of the nearby museum or are selfsufficiently (heat pump). The newest techniques are used for the heating and cooling system. A heat pump unit which is situated in an underground space, extracts heat from the air. The warmth is transported through tubes which are led through one of the steel columns into the cabines. After converting the warmth to a fluid, tubes will transport it to the heating-units under the benches. The result of this low temperature heating system is a nice, comfortable climate and the energy cost remains very low. In summertime the system can be used for cooling as well. This system is CO2 neutral. The balanced ventilation system is totally demand-based with supply and abstract units integrated in the benches. The ventilation and heating systems are continuously monitored. To minimize the energy consumption, all lights are LED. In the toilet, daylight- and movement-sensors are integrated in the LED armatures.
