The Tree Tent is a [camping shelter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grayhus) made of an aluminum and green ash static airframe that is [suspended in the canopy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kimberlite-table) via rigging. A waterproof cotton skin provides relief from the elements while a wool lining on the inside keeps you warm. Tree Tents were born after more than three years of work and research on energy-efficient and lightweight shelter systems. The goal was to produce something that was sustainable and made of recycled materials. Whether you're looking to reduce your carbon footprint in the wilderness or a [new secret hideout](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/secret-camp), there are a variety of Tree Tent variants to suit your needs. A standard Tree Tent set up will cost £8,000. Luminair offers optional installations of renewable electricity, a wood stove and water. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 92% | Activity: 96% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) > [Eco Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/ecoarchitecture) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Eco-camping:** Develop eco-friendly camping solutions using sustainable materials and renewable energy sources. - **Tree-based Accommodations:** Create unique accommodations by utilizing trees as a foundation and incorporating modern materials for comfort and sustainability. - **Pop-up Camping:** Design pop-up camping shelters that are easy to install and transport, while maintaining eco-friendly and sustainable features. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Camping and Outdoors:** Provide more eco-friendly camping options for the environmentally conscious consumer. - **Hospitality and Tourism:** Create unique, sustainable, and comfortable accommodations in natural environments. - **Architecture and Design:** Develop innovative solutions for sustainable, off-grid buildings and accommodations using renewable energy sources and recycled materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Lightweight Suspended Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suspended-tents.md) - [Ergonomic Suspended Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/switra-swisstrail.md) - [Lunar Lander-Inspired Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kudhva-kanvas-ktent.md) - [Family-Friendly Suspended Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tentsile-stingray.md) - [Transparent Teardrop-Shaped Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yuko-nagayama-associates.md) - [Omni-Position Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/float-tent.md) - [Angular Multi-Level Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokken-softshell-tent.md) - [Airy Oversized Hanging Cabanas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treepod-canopy.md) - [Carbon-Neutral Camper Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twoperson-backpacking-tent.md)
