Houzz Tour: A Tree House Haven inspired South Carolina - When a couple decided to build their home full time on Kiawah Island in South Carolina, they are not interested in traditional ornate detailing seen throughout the region. Inspired by travels around the world, they wanted a house that was clean, simple and Zen. "They liked the idea of the house of the mentality tree," says architect Scott Anderson of The Anderson studio of architecture and design. "The placement and design of the house was totally driven site; we only had to remove two trees to build here.
Perched above a marsh in a grove of oaks, the house design combines Asian elements, modern, local and rustic. "The look we were going for all was a design that is strong due to its simplicity, aesthetic tree / camp house with a soothing Japanese influence, said Anderson. The result is a building of the house as tree that embraces nature and makes the most beautiful views and site.
