Design Obsession: Living Amongst the Trees

Hi Everyone!

Random Shavonda fact:  When I was younger, I wanted nothing more than to have a tree house.  Something about them seemed so comforting to me.  I never actually go one, but a girl could dream, right?

Today my minor obsession with tree houses has manifested into more of an image of a houses with trees within them.  I think they are fantastic.  Ive been on the hunt for a fiddle leaf fig for eons, but they are just so damned expensive.  Like ridiculously so.  I also have an affinity for indoor fruit bearing trees and indoor palms.  Take a gander at these inspiring spaces that feature the best of natures bounty. 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So tell me, do you think trees have a place inside the walls or do you they they are better off outside?  Until next time....

  1. They totally have a place inside. I just would love it if my cats would stop trying to eat them all the time.

  2. I love trees inside, I just seem to kill things if they aren't planted outside :(

    1. You know what, I tend to have that same issue. I think it has something to so with the fact that outside nature lends a huge helping hand. I'm learning to keep things alive inside, though.
