FLOATING House in the Forest? You Won't Believe It's Only 19m²

#architecture #woodencabin #forestcabin #floatinghouse Perched nearly nine meters above the forest floor in Jägala-Joa, Estonia, the Piil Tree House Retreat by Arsenit is a compact 19-square-meter cabin that redefines modern treehouse living. Supported by a single structural core, the retreat minimizes its impact on the landscape while offering panoramic views of the surrounding pine forest. Thoughtfully designed with multifunctional oak interiors, expansive glazing, and a naturally weathering timber exterior, the cabin combines efficient use of space, prefabricated construction, and a strong connection to nature, creating a peaceful year-round retreat that demonstrates how small-scale architecture can deliver an exceptional living experience.
