建筑师Luís Rebelo de  Andrade 和 Tiago Rebelo de Andrade在葡萄牙完成两座梦幻树屋。这些树屋与模块化系统公司合作，希望借由预制模块化更易推广。

Along with the project Pedras Salgadas Park by architects Luís Rebelo de  Andrade and Tiago Rebelo de Andrade, came the challenge of creating  an object that could recreate the fantasy of the tree houses.

The project for these houses was developed in partnership with the  Modular System Company. The idea was to get an object that would  be far away from the orthogonality and from pre-established concepts associated with the modular construction.

The characteristic design associated with the slates and the wood on the  base suggests a snake gliding between the trees. Like a wild animal in its natural habitat, the house suddenly appears in the visual field of the observer.

完成的树屋像是滑翔在树木间的蛇般，非常自然的潜伏在地形中，实现有点突然的出现在人们视野中的效果。选择自然和本土的材料，与公园建立起共生的关系。

The choice of materials gives an instant sense of connection with nature at the same time it establishes a coherent image of the proposal into a perfect symbiosis between the house and the Park.

The architects made use of new technology already tested in prototypes that allow a weightless easy-carrying construction. Native raw material, slate and wood used in the finishing also promote the integration at the same time it confers invisibility to the houses, not allowing these to take the chief role which belongs to the centennial Park itself.

树屋设计过程中十分关注可持续发展和生态环境。加强绝缘层，利用中水，使用太阳能电池板，采用低耗能LED照明系统等等。每座树屋包含工作室，浴室，厨房。该方案就像原始的小屋或者野生动物般与自然协调。此外该系统确保了树屋的多用途和适应不同的景观与气候。多种型号正在制作中，很快可与大众见面，将出现在沿海，河岸，山区还有城市等迥异的地区。

Sustainability and ecology have always been one of the major concerns during the development of the project. The consistency and rationale for the intervention were attained by the layers and reinforced insulation, heating systems, water reuse, water solar panels, the low consumption lighting system using LED technology as well as the option of keeping the soil without any impermeable system, among other solutions. Each house comprises a studio with a bathroom and a kitchen.

Thus, the two TREE SNAKE HOUSES of Pedras Salgadas Park are objects that, using similar materials and technologies, point out to our imaginary: the primitive hut and the wild animal.

Developed by the architects Luís Rebelo De Andrade And Tiago Rebelo De Andrade in cooperation with Modular System the project also foresees multiple purposes, which can be adapted to different landscapes and climates.

More models of these houses like the MOUNTAIN SNAKE HOUSE, the RIVER SNAKE HOUSE and the SAND SNAKE HOUSE, whose dimensions and materials are easily adapted to various climates and regions, are being developed and will soon be available to the public. It will then be possible to acquire one of these houses and to benefit from different situations such as coastal areas, riverbanks, mountain or urban environments.
