Treepod
Over in the U.K., specifically in Cornwall, is the Lost Meadow Treepod, which seems just suspended in air. It’s built with recycled materials and uses cedar siding.

The HemLoft
Joel Allen’s treehouse project, The HemLoft, didn’t necessarily begin as a project that would harness reclaimed/recycled material, but it turned out that way after he sourced material from Craigslist to help complete the floor of his project. The HemLoft is located in Whistler, British Columbia, and is now part of the Medicine Trail and a stop during guided hiking and snowshoe trips.
