Tree House Module
Minimum disruption in nature. This factor brings the possibility to define the character of houses with the surrounding environment.
From this point of view, we will not experience a top-down system of architecture but being part of nature provides an opportunity to feel, combine, and accomplish it.
MODULARITY/
a. Easy to build and expand a Module that would be established and generated in diverse natural contexts. Bringing modularity even on a smaller scale such as; detail of structure to ease the process of building, replacing, and repairing was another important aim of the design.
b. By looking at trees that grow gently horizontally but mainly vertically in the trunk part was a necessity to answer this action of vegetation with the same act just to produce a favorable act and action between trees and Modules. In addition, all the trees contain a Fractal system so it would be better if our modules obey the rules of this system to reach a better Harmony into nature.
Our two modules will generally have the same form because of the same functionality, but for the variety, we focused on developing form in a vertical direction to gain different possible sizes. The concept of modularity will not stop in the main scale of two modules also the proposed form contains a modular system in the structure (smaller scale) to enhance the process of assembly and disassembly of the Modules.

STRUCTURE/
The structure is prefabricated and mainly from wood. The middle of the house is the core vertical access. By inserting an elevator, handicapped people find a chance to have experience of living in a treehouse too. Elevator could be replaced with a stairs or a tree.
The facade included two layers: interior and the exterior as movable shaders. The main part of the facade is built of half-transparent polycarbonate. By the proposed material, the attempt is avoiding rigidity and blurring the border of the house and the environment and providing the privacy inside of the house. Also with a 360-degree movable shaders, residents could have a completely open view of the environment.
In the end, it needs to mention, the flexibility of the structure and facade makes it possible to use it as a multi-purpose small scale building.
