Treehouse redefined

I never had a treehouse. I was never really attracted to them; until I saw the Yellow Treehouse Restaurant. That's right, a restaurant in a treehouse! If you were one of those weirdo children who hosted pretend dinner or tea parties, it can finally be a reality; that is, if you happen to be in New Zealand. Something tells me a restaurant like this wouldn't be too successful, or desirable, during the winter months in the Northeast.

The cocoon-like structure was brilliantly executed by Auckland New Zealand Architects. They have an amazing layout of the design process from beginning to end on their website (and can be found here).

New Zealand previously wasn't in my Top 10 Places to Travel, but they certainly moved up a few notches thanks to the Yellow Treehouse Restaurant. Photos via CONTEMPORIST.
