This Zigloo home is a new take on a "log house." Instead of being made up of a series of logs, the small rectangular dwelling is perched atop four sturdy wooden logs.
While still just a concept, the residential design is reflective of the Canadian company's innovative design approaches. The treehouse offers the feel of living among the forest canopy.
While it's a neat design, getting things in and out of the house would be difficult as all it offers is a small, very steep ladder. This is a home suitable for people who sleep in hammocks that hit up Ikea for their furniture.
Take a look at some more treehouses:
