OUR JOURNEY

Rooted in a passion for nature and craftsmanship, we build more than treehouses—we create timeless sanctuaries that inspire a deeper connection with the natural world.

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

From a young age, Philipp displayed a natural talent for climbing and a deep love for heights. 

Growing up in the Auroville forest, surrounded by pioneers living in simple tree huts, he was inspired to take this lifestyle to new heights—literally. Philipp made it his life’s mission to build grander, more innovative homes in the most majestic trees around the world.

​

Together with members of what would become today’s TreeHouse Community, Philipp spent his adolescent years experimenting with various building materials, mastering construction techniques, and fostering a space for skill-sharing at the Auroville Youth Centre. His journey took a pivotal turn when he attended the youth-led Climate COP in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which inspired the launch of the 500 TreeHouse Project. This ambitious initiative aims to promote sustainable construction practices and encourage a deeper connection with nature by living among the trees.

Years of experimentation and meticulous documentation led to the creation of the ultimate treehouse design, marking the beginning of the 500 TreeHouse Project. The first treehouse built for commercial use at a renowned eco-resort marked the official founding of TreeHouse Community as a Unit under the Auroville Foundation.

​

With the growing demand for sustainable housing solutions, we expanded by inaugurating a large workshop space in Auroville, equipped with advanced woodworking tools and model treehouses. This facility welcomes treehouse enthusiasts and allows us to craft the finest materials from sustainably sourced hardwoods, ready for assembly across India and beyond.

​

Philipp's passion for treehouses goes beyond his work—he lives full-time in a treehouse with his family and young children, embodying the lifestyle and values that TreeHouse Community stands for. Today, our treehouse projects span continents, nestled in the world's tallest and most majestic trees, bringing people closer to nature in every corner of the globe.

WHY

Our vision is to lead the way in sustainable living by creating treehouses that are not only architectural masterpieces but also symbols of a future where humans and nature coexist in harmony. We aspire to inspire a global movement toward eco-friendly construction and living, where everyone can experience the joy and serenity of life among the trees.
