Transparent Treetop Cubes

The Steam Studio is a Bizarrely Intriguing Recycled Space

Here at Trend Hunter, we've covered a lot of fantastic tree houses, but the Steam Studio by artist Helle Kvamme is certainly one of the more bizarrely fascinating specimens to come along by far.

Made largely from recycled materials, the Steam Studio is a provocative structure that is rigged in order to occasionally fill with steam. In this way, the Steam Studio is more akin to an artistic expression piece than an actual structure, with the hope being that the water molecules undergoing their dramatic changes from vapor to ice will inspire those walking by to pause for a moment of thoughtful reflection.
