If you feel the hustle and bustle of city life becoming too overwhelming, one of the things you can look to do is to take a retreat somewhere in the mountains, the forests, or the near the ocean. However, you may not be as comfortable being in the outdoors as we have grown used to the comforts of modern society and indoor living. But you still want to experience nature in its fullness and keep your mind away from the stress and worries of the urban jungle. So, perhaps this elegant, minimalist treehouse called Piil is the perfect compromise.

Designed and built by the studio Arsenit, the concept is basically that of a retreat house out in the woods. They also took into consideration the surrounding flora and fauna, one of the reasons why it’s such a compact structure. You wouldn’t want to change or destroy of the natural environment just to find a nice resting place in the middle of forest. Instead, they adapted the measurements of the treehouse to suit the immediate surroundings.
And so, they came up with a 19-square-meter space that stands at 9 meters nestled between trees. It offers a view looking out into the forest while maintaining a comfortable living space fully furnished with a bed, a bathroom, and a calming netted hammock if you’d like to go stargazing at night.
