The Treetents

If displaying your affection for trees involves extended periods of close contact, then perhaps we can interest you in some Treetents: tents for the eco-warrior.
They are not exactly being marketed at all. They are rather a seven year old art piece by Dutch designer Dré Wapenaar, currently on display at the MoMA for a show called
SAFE: Design Takes On Risk.
The Treetent is made of steel, canvas and plywood and measures 15 feet high by nearly 9 feet in diameter.
And, if you chose to make your ecological stand a family affair, know they are quite roomy: you could all fit inside in comfort.
