A Feel-Good Architecture Treehouse Project

Usually The Atlanta Journal-Consitution is not usually the hottest place to go for information on architecture and/or home design (or a lot of other things besides The Jumble), but over the weekend they featured something really cool. It was an in-house design competition at Lord Aeck Sargeant Architecture to design a treehouse for Camp Twin Lakes.  Artist Cynthia Gentry, who runs Art Heals came up with the idea of providing a treehouse. The program had to take into account that many of these kids are seriously ill and/or require wheelchairs. The winning entry comes from Amy Leathers, who had the coolest thing to say about the whole thing: “Every architect wants to design a treehouse.” Don’t we all?!!
