Fuselage is a flat-pack cabin that adapts to the landscape

This tiny cylindrical cabin can hang from the trees or stand on stilts, depending on the terrain.

Fuselage is inspired by elements of aerospace design with a tube-shaped body that’s as lightweight as possible. The flat-pack prefab is made from sustainably sourced timber and recycled aluminium, and the cabin can be immediately assembled on site – although its maker, Tree Tents, recommends getting a tree surgeon involved for suspended huts.

Triple insulation keeps the Fuselage dry, and a wood stove and radiant heating are installed for colder days. The basic version of the ‘glamping’ hut – which starts at £26,000 and takes 6-8 weeks from construction to delivery – includes beds, seating and minimal interiors, but the cabin can be customised further.

Add-ons include timber cladding, solar panels, and wool blanket sets. And owners that plan on using their Fuselage as a regular weekend getaway can extend it and install a WC, shower and kitchen.
