When you think of tree houses, you know that wood would be a necessity. However, Ana Correia Vasco Lopes, Vera Gomes and Bruno Guerreiro for Dideia were able to come up with something better, creating a treehouse made of cork material.

Aside from being eco-friendly, this is one treehouse that should be appealing to check out. The Cork Treehouse is made from 100% chemical free materials and can be easily folded once afterwards. Users simply have to roll it up, pack it in and store it in the back of your car.

Not only is this a great treehouse for your backyard, you can even take it outdoors on your next camping trip perhaps.

It is composed of inner LEDs that are embedded in ceramic-made wood logs and makes use of water vapors to simulate smoke. The system also regulates the intensity of the lights in tandem with the emission of the vapor, in order to deliver a realistic version of an actual wood fireplace.

The Zen is tailor-made to easily integrate into any contemporary living space.
