VA was a lucky boy when he received his first treehouse in his grandmother's front yard for his 10th birthday. With much excitement this led to VA's second treehouse several years later in the calm back yard of busy Chennai. VA's Fortress is a deck can be accessed straight from an opening on the first floor of the house. It's a serene getaway where times takes a break to read a book, listen to the birds, watch the squirrels or just lay in a tree. It was built partly covered with an open roof to give the feeling of an open deck offering flexibility to be used during rain or sun.
