Hvordan begyndte du at lave træhuse?
How did you start making treehouses?
Da jeg besluttede at blive træhusbygger, ville jeg vide, hvordan det blev gjort... og hvordan man håndterer spørgsmål som "sikkerhed", "konstruktion", "trævenlighed", "bæredygtighed", "holdbart træ og materialer" osv. ... Da Treehouse Building i USA har udviklet sig til en seriøs professionel forretning i løbet af de sidste par årtier, besluttede jeg mig for at tage til den årlige International Treehouse Convention i Takilma, Oregon. Workshoppene afholdes af eksperter i træhusbygning ... blandt andre Michael Garnier og Pete Nelson. Tilbage i Holland sagde jeg mit reklamejob op ... og startede dette – stadig – fantastiske eventyr.
Once I decided to become a Treehouse builder I wanted to know how it was done.. and how issues like ‘safety’, ‘construction’, ‘tree-friendlyness’, ‘sustainability’, ‘durable wood and materials’ etc are dealt with.. As Treehouse Building in the US has developed into a serious professional business during the last few decades, I decided to go to the yearly International Treehouse Convention in Takilma, Oregon. The workshops are hosted by the experts on treehouse building.. such as Michael Garnier and Pete Nelson. Back in Holland I quit my advertising job.. and started this – still – amazing adventure.
